(highest degree - lowest degree)* (15/23.5)= range of variation

Well, the current axial tilt of 23.5 degrees creates seasons in the northern and southern hemispheres and creates 6 months of daylight/darkness at the poles, depending on earth's relation to the sun in orbit.
If our planet were not tilted to the same degree, then I suppose we would not experience seasons with the same intensity. Nor would the poles have such extreme daylight hours (the sun would no longer be circumpolar in such areas)

Climate changes, and days duration shorten and extended a little... If the Earth was completely round it would not have change to much, but our Earth is flat on the poles... So irregular in shape.

Less variation in seasons.
That means the average temperature in Northern latitudes would be colder, summers and winters in the temperate zones would be milder, temperatures near the tropics (Florida, Bahamas, etc) would be warmer.

The main effect would be milder seasons. Winter would not be as cold and summer would not be as hot.

There will be a change in seasons and the entire solstice will change in duration.

For me nothing.
I live almost in the equatorial line
