That's literally the exact opposite sentiment of the post. How about using those triggers for something more useful? Or encouraging people not to do those things?

Why not aim to create something that improves things, rather than looking to exploit it and add to the problem?

I understand the sentiment of the post, but it's just not realistic. If we could get rid of the problem, that would obviously be preferable, but it's not going anywhere. It's just too pervasive and exploits psychology too well.

We should encourage people to do those things and break free, and some will be able to. Many people, however, lack the willpower to do so. If we can find a way to make people learn and feel fulfilled while in a short-attention-span environment, that would be an improvement from where we are now.
