Maybe not "undemocratic" per se, but I don't like them.

I kinda have the opposite perspective, they're somewhat undemocratic but I do think they're necessary.

Under RCV or approval voting, those laws are not really necessary, though, and they increase voter choice, especially since general election turnout dwarfs primary turnout, it's only fair to give voters a chance at more choice in the general.
