Flap retraction

I not flown Cessna alot nor recently
l agree don't use flap until sure of reaching field and use full flap to bring back aiming point

Clearly remember T67M PFL that 10 flap was selected at start as glided better

Also in PA 28 instructing we did retract flap 25 to 10 if miss judged it

Wanted to get to full flap as reduced the margin over stall

So why is flap retraction such a bad thing ?

Genuinely interested
