>"trying to 100% a game for completionism sake and nothing else will ruin the game for you"
It isn't specifically "completionism bad", it's more "you aren't going to get enjoyment from something you don't genuinely engage with, no matter how much of it you consume". Flowey wasn't an eager completionist with love for the world who wanted to see more of it, he was someone who didn't actually enjoy what he was doing (mechanically interacting with variables) but still did it because he was chasing the high of feeling. It's more relevant on the Genocide route, as that's where the idea is introduced, because you're doing the same thing as Flowey and treating characters as a means to an end. He was once in your position, it isn't meant to be a "don't you see how evil you are?" message but a "don't you see how this is a fucked up way to engage with things". At most, it's telling you not to robotically blast through games you don't really enjoy in hopes of finding the one thing that'll suddenly turn your mind around on it, because you aren't going to find that thing and it won't be meaningful. "Preachy" is such a fucking overused criticism in regards to these games and it rarely applies
