Pragmatic standpoint is completely valid, but don't forget why do we have writing systems: to convey information. That's the basic need. So taking the same pragmatic approach we don't need writers nor poets nor prose or anything of sorts: language exists to transfer data from human to human, and don't you dare to find any of that serialization into english/anything beautiful. Is that it?
