Standard Deduction VS Itemized Deduction

The 2022 standard deduction for single is $12,950 and for married filing jointly $25,900.

Since SALT is only $10,000 (i.e., less than standard deduction), wouldn't standard deduction be the obvious selection for normal workers (i.e., no business)?

 

I just want to check if I misunderstand the idea of deduction.
