A bend in a river causes turbulence which reduces the flow rate. Different flow rates improve water quality, as high flow and low flow both have advantages and disadvantages.

The additional stream length causes additional frictional losses and lowers the rate of flow from what it could be without the bends. Whether this is good or bad is not answerable in general. If you have fishermen around who like to fish lazy fish, they probably like a slow-moving river.
