Default Stake or no stake tomato

Every time I have staked tomatoes, the weight of the tomatoes causes the
plant to slide down the stake and the result has been the same as no stake.

I grew a few tomatoes without stake or cage this year. Seems like
it's a better method. You get a lot more tomatoes because the stems
root themselves on the ground and multi-stems also increases the
number of fruits.

So is the one stem on a stake method just a waste of time?
