I’ve had that same suspicion/opinion for some time now as well.
Here’s another one for you - what does an infinite, all-powerful God lack?
Limitations.
So we are put here, with free will, so that He can experience life in a way that wouldn’t otherwise be possible, with us hopefully coming to the realization of Truth and coming to recognize and esteem the fullness and righteousness of His holy plan.
We are All Yuh A(re) Hym and He is us.
Psalm 82:6
We then can come to walk in fellowship with Him in a relationship between our limited understanding, as children, while He walks with us and guides us as a Father in Righteousness that is beyond our understanding, which we are then blessed with to walk out with our own sons and daughters and wives as we come to understand the blessings and tribulations of doing so. Our spouse did something to us out of defiance, haughtiness, and selfishness that caused us great grief? That’s us with God! Our child disobeyed us for the 30th time and stupidly broke something of great value? That’s us with God! Then turn and forgive, seventy times seven, for as we judge we shall be judged.
HalleluYAH!

Meanwhile, if he doesn’t allow evil to act, for one we don’t actually have free will, and for two there’s no contrast between His righteousness and the absence of it. Like watching a “TV show” on a TV where the screen is either all white, or all black, and there’s no fluctuation in the output of the audio. A simple lightbulb can write that story. Instead He’s given us The Greatest Story Ever Told!
