      People often misidentify the cause of this as being societal need for stability. Sending people to school to learn to not follow this instinct so they can then work in factories and offices on make work.

      The truth is much worse, the reasons factories and offices have make work: It is a passable strategy for social inclusion. This means ignoring your instinct that something is pointless and boring is a passable psychological coping strategy for inclusion.

      In other words tribes have this as well, it isn't just a feature of industrialization or modernization.

      Instinctive inclination toward inclusion performs better than no instinct for inclusion in all but the rarest cases

      We forgive the absence of social graces in geniuses and visionaries, once they’ve amassed sufficient social capital to justify it

      being boring and generating pointlessness seems like a clear lack of social grace to me

      Some of the greatest achievements of humanity have been in categories pointless and boring

      I think it takes a dour mind to do a pointless and boring thing until it becomes useful however. I do think they provide value. I'm not sure I can do much of it however.

      if something eventually has a point it is literally not pointless

      It isn't necessarily perceived as such at the time however. I'm pointing to distinguishing the experience of something being pointless from it actually being pointless.
