I don't make my bed too, but I swear there is some psychological/ritual shit going on in there. Another example would be why go to the church. Can't we just pray and confess on our own balcony?
Why hang up Christmas lights only to take them down a week later?
Why read when (if) we can inject knowledge into our brain?
Why workout when we can just inject steroids?
Some of there stuff are more of a waste of time than others, and I suspect it is the reason OP has this (un)popular opinion.
Until the new Temporal API comes along, there are some libraries we can use.
