Keeping tension in muscle/rep speed

Recently I have noticed more and more personal trainers in my gym coaching their clients in this manner - lifting quite slowly and telling not to lock the movement in every exercise in order to keep the constant tension in muscle/to not relax it. Hence, the keeping tension thing has made substantially confused.

Does it really help to get better results in terms of muscular hypertrophy? Do the benefits of the manner outweigh the disadvantage of less lifting load used compared with normal rep speed/style? ( explosive on the concentric phase, controlled on the eccentric, lockout after every rep)

What is general consensus based on truthful sources and scientific data?

In addition to this, as I tried the method once, I can get way more better pump with it. But again, does it mean hypertrophy is induced better?
