I generally agree with that. It's one of the things people loved about TikTok, they got to feel like they were doing something creative or original, producing creative content, without having to invest years into learning how to actually dance. Copy some basic arm motions and movements, repeat it a lot until you memorize it, then record it and publish it. It requires very little thought, and the young crowd that is mostly doing it has a huge surplus of physical energy to put into copying & playing back mentally empty physical movement.
