You significantly underplay how much influence this has on the budget actually passed by the house and how often the house decides to go ahead and fund what the white house asks for.

The president's budget is traditionally DOA, but particularly when the opposing party controls the house.

Apologies for lack of a newer source, but https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/presidential-budge...

The presidential budget proposal is actually required by law, but just doesn't have an outsized effect.

The house is hostile to Trump no? They will do the opposite of what he says he wants. Checkmate.
