Another benefit of UBI would be making fewer people interested in helping big companies lobby for weird protectionist trade policies because they work in that industry and would have nothing if it isn't protected.
Instead, everyone would have some baseline protection from the raw edge of poverty-- only those seeking excessive wealth would be excited and motivated to protect coal mining or farming etc.
Don't we supposedly like "free" markets? When you look closely most markets are a racket.

People are greedy idiots sometimes.
