Does the software itself have value? Isn’t it what people do with the software that really has value? The software sat on a floppy disk has pretty low value.

I’d then argue that software has as much value as notes do. It’s about what you do with it/them, what it/they enable - that counts.

But both software and notes are therefore extremely valuable to the activity of doing.

My notes are my software, heck I even call my note system “LifeOS”, which makes that even more apparent.
