I always thought the point of standing desks was, that you could periodically switch between standing and sitting. That should be at least somewhat beneficial right?

It really isn't that much better, instead we should be periodically stretching or exercising

No, the main point of standing desk is that whoever has one talks about them all day, every day. At least, that was my experience 10-15 years ago, which was the last time I spent in an office.
