90% of power and influence is exercised in 1:1 undeclared meetings.

But I think that 10% is needed to consolidate/consummate the influence. See: Little Finger in game of thrones

Routine meetings are important, but not for power/influence. Mostly for painful info consensus labor. Proof-of-consultation mining.

I don’t know I count some meetings as pivotal events in my life. When real/true things are said it can change the fate of orgs and lives

Sure but that doesn't falsify the claim that most meetings are a waste of time. Makework accumulating out of incompetence and apathy.
