not really a convincing comparison... if i no longer had to poo, that would be pretty cool. yeah its a bodily function but it also kind of sucks and is disgusting and requires a ton of infrastructure to "take care of".

being able to seek-scroll throughout your day like a non-stop livestream is objectively a power-up. some people will get oneshotted by it - but a lot of people have been oneshotted by a lot of different things over the decades.

short-form video fried lots of brains, but it also built out the infra for all the other stuff. it is what it is.
