No, it means 95% of effort spent is spent towards already solved problems. This is, in part, why I hate capitalism. People are doing tons of work simply to compete with others instead of working together to solve meaningful problems.

It is difficult for me to dispute this as I don't think I am in any way entitled to define what problems are "meaningful".

BTW - lack of an authority deciding what problems are meaningful is the core idea of capitalism. And I'm telling you as a person that lived many years under communism: this is much better for everybody.
