Is Muscle Band a good item competitively?

Is the boost given by the Muscle Band a good option competitively? (also try to mention how much is the boost)

Muscle Bandisn’t a bad item for competitive but it’s outclassed

Muscle Band’s boost is 10%;>Effect: Boosts power of physical moves by 10%.

Muscle Band is outclassed in terms of it’s boost really - Life Orb gives a30%boost to BOTH Special and Physical attacks at the cost of 10% HP.Expert Belt gives a 20% boost to BOTH Special and Physical attacks, provided they are super effective.

In all honesty, those two items are better than Muscle Band - I know of no Pokemon which would not work better with one of those items, or another one (Like Choice Band) compared to Muscle Band.
