You could say this exact same thing about any invention.

“But why would anyone want to speak into a wire? There’s literally no point.”

“Are you seriously going to wrap your food in plastic? There’s literally no point.”

“Who will want to type on a phone without any buttons? There’s literally no point.”

“Nobody is going to want to eat meat grown in a lab. There’s literally no point.”

Not everything needs to be built with a use in mind, and even if it has a small user base at first, needs change over time. For all we know this is visionary and ahead of its time, but we don’t know it yet.
