I think you are disagreeing with something I haven't said.
The pursuit of knowledge can lead to all kinds of discovery and invention but the knowledge in itself might be useless.

But we have no way of knowing that it might be useless.

I suppose I'm not getting the point.

Forgive me, I'm not trying to be adversarial.

However we came about, my evening is going to be the same.

You came about because your mum got into the bath after your dad.

The 'event' of big bang might not be of much use, the process by which quantum flavours create atomic structure and thus molecules (and ultimately everything) could be the most important future knowledge of mankind.

If you can engineer on a quantum or sub-atomic scale, you can effectively turn anything into anything else with relative ease.

A post scarcity society should be the end goal of capitalism. Perfect recycling, where you could turn old refuse into food - and that's before you get to the applications to living tissue.

Nanotechnology would represent an epoch for humanity on a scale that would be unequalled in human existence.

Isn't that one of the terms and conditions of this forum?

You lost me on your first use of the word "quantum".

Nothing wrong with devil's advocate......Except he doesn't exist.....It's the greatest trick he ever played.
