The original link for itsalive says it works by making it not live and the op says just as much.

This is very different from practicing a script and you actually doing all the actions in real time. You're allowed to rehearse for your live performance but unless you're doing it live then it's not live.

People also hate lip syncing because it's a deception of being live.

And yet, ~all singers lipsync, because the point isn't to show off what the artist can do vocally every single night, but to entertain the audience, which lip syncing achieves.

I think your view of the world is much more pessimistic than reality. Live music is quite common and far more prolific than lip syncing.

Live music of professional, popular singers is mostly lipsynced.
