This is pretty much how I look at it as well. It reminds me of
coding projects I have occasionally let myself get sucked into that
ended up being 1000 times cooler for me than for any actual
player. Or sometimes, its somewhat cool for the end user, but the
end user never has the opportunity to appreciate everything going on
behind the scenes.
That doesn't make it worthless, but it is certainly worth realizing
before you spend a lot of time on something that never gets
appreciated as much as you'd like.
