I'm studying linear sigma model. I understand it's a useful effective model for more than one theory with the same symmetries but I don't understand why it is desirable for sigma to be light. I read this in more than one source without anything to justify, just "so sigma is smaller, which is great for low energy physics! let us all celebrate small sigma!". So I celebrate because I'm a polite person but I don't understand why.
