Surely if there is even 1 unbanked person in existence that is interested in cluster computing, then this is a worthwhile endeavour.

No, absolutely not.
Or maybe to Don Quixote, but he was famously delusional.
Is there any number of unbanked people showing interest in cluster computing that would change your opinion?

I "show an interest" in space, but I'm not entitled/deluded enough to expect someone to deliver a shuttle to me, because that would be a waste of time/materials/energy/money.
It's the same here.
If you had spoken to people in the 1960s and told them how many transistors we would have on a chip in 2020, they probably would have called you delusional.
Also you are comparing a space shuttle to a few raspberry pis, hardly apples with apples.
"What about all the homeless Iranian Ferrari owners!" doesn't seem like much of a rallying cry.
