That's not entirely fair. I mean it can be a massive time-suck of pedantry at times, but I've learned a great deal of very useful things about work and life here from articles and comments.

Humans are weird creatures; we achieve productivity in very unexpected and often unintended ways.

Yes, but neither is it fair that because you serendipitously gain productivity from this website, to assume the function of it is to be productive or expect submissions to meet some standard of productivity. I think completely trivial submissions have a place here too.
