You can have your opinions about modern math, its usefulness in the world as it is, whether or not knowing if hairy balls can divide by three is actually going to be beneficial for anything but just obscure knowledge's sake. You may even say it's useless.
Needless to say, a useless result that absolutely no mathematician will ever read, confirm, understand, agree with or even consider to solve their "useless" problems is an impressive waste of resources.
