There was one argument which I bought in my youth and no longer do: the EC as a last line of defense against populism/fascism/foreign interference (last point articulated in Federalist #68, IIRC). Didn't exactly work out that way, I'm afraid.

Yes, I sort of bought that argument in the past, but even that argument is an argument for inequality and against equal representation to "save us from ourselves."

And everyone arguing against the EC only does so because it benefits their political affiliation.
