The tiny metal handle hurts like shit. The rope has much more surface area to spread the load over a larger area -> less pressure.
Keep meaning to post more but this is from yesterday's walk through the park
a year ago by vladmech to c/detrashed
Plus it holds the bucket at a nicer angle so you don't need to bend your other wrist as much to put the litter in
It's comfier to hold onto while walking around, and it helps hold the bucket at a bit more of an angle for easier dropping stuff into it. The only issue with it is I leave the bucket around the side of our house and the rope is pretty gross right now, by the time I'm home all I want to do is wash my hands haha.
Edit - yeah exactly as the other replies said!

Post those pictures of trail cleanups, campsite overhauls, getting tires out of the old watering hole, or that grassy area by the sidewalk you pass on your evening walks that too many people leave their trash in.

Out of curiosity, what is the purpose of the rope handle? Easier to pour out than the wire one, maybe?
