I suppose one would not derive deep, meaningful happiness from the button, because the happiness would have a hollow source. Sort of like the difference between the elation of scoring a goal, or the joy of reading a good book, or the merriment had when spending time with long-time friends, versus the high of taking drugs. Enriching fulfilment versus empty thrill.
