I just think it’s a way for people to show off their wealth

So is the Mona Lisa. So is a manuscript of The Tales of Beedle the Bard.

The notion of NFTs is embedded in the idea of immutability. If unique strings of bits hold no value for you, that's your preference and nothing more.

If you can only be sentimental about oil and canvas, or handwritten ink on leather bound paper, that's your preference and nothing more.

I can destroy the wallet key somehow. I can destroy the book. I can destroy the painting.

It's not an illusion of uniqueness at all, you just seem to be unwilling or unable to comprehend patronage.

I can make a hundred million replicas of the original for 10 cents, this is not a preference.

You're stating the orders of magnitude as if they're significant. Can you explain how?

What do you think patronage is?
