A product or object must be functional, efficient, have a clear and specific reason for its existence, whether it's decorative, informational, educational, or instructional. Engineers, designers, and companies are just not going to waste their time coming up with a sophisticated (in some cases) piece of equipment that has no use, or a building that is not accessible, or a sign that is not meant to be read. They're too busy building our tomorrow and... Baah, who am I kidding? Take a look at the most ridiculous, pointless things on this uber weird planet.
