Just because something is impractical or a solution is unknown doesn't make it valueless.
There are possible truths that exist in mainstream math formalisms[1]... for which the formalism says there may be no proof of. Just because the formalism can't explain everything doesn't mean we should throw it out!
I view communications like this as:
a. making ppl aware (who may not be technical)
b. doing the work that may not be worth $$$
c. avoiding future coordination failures of society
All of these in a hyper-optimized and hyper-educated societies may seem inefficient, but in a non-optimized and not highly educated world we live in they are the difference between chaos and not.
