Nobody in their real mind has more than 10, let's say 15 close-ish friends (with whom to share photos of your unborn baby, for example), as such Facebook was never really about friends, it was more about acquaintances.

Sure, however I want to follow what acquaintances are doing too. It's especially useful if they are in my city and I see that on social media and want to catch up with them.
