It’s not ENTIRELY pointless. I’d be more than happy to grind cores... if they were MASTERWORK cores. Not enhancement cores. Masterworking is a beneficial and dynamic aspect to the game, a positive implementation since its debut in Year 1. It all went wrong when they shoved them in infusion thanks to hardcore hardcores like Gothalion (which is funny to me, considering Goth is only in the top 6% of player with around 780 hours or so on PC. I personally have almost 1,000 hours more playtime and yet Bungie looks to people like him for game direction 🙄) “I like really grindy games” headass.
