I’d argue this cross exchange arbitrage does still provide some value by keeping prices of securities across exchanges/the world in sync, despite being quite unfair and taking value from those putting in large orders.

Liquidity provided by algo market makers is also a service to market participants because they take risk to ensure there is always someone to buy or sell - this reduces volatility and risk for everyone.

Algo trading is also required for keeping ETFs in line their benchmarks, which is an entirely separate subject you could fill a book with.

So no, all algo trading is not the same thing, there are valid and productive uses of code rather than people shouting across a pit or running slips up and down roads to keep capital flowing through markets efficiently.

Acceleration because when (not if) you get hit/crash, you need to be able to catch up quickly.
