Uh, the very first sentence states that people feel better on UBI, for no loss of employment rate. So basically all the mental suffering associated with unemployment is pointless suffering.

I'm not sure you can deduce that it's pointless. It's not like UBI doesn't have any other consequences (such as the feelings of the people who don't like UBI).

Note that I think UBI is a great idea.
