There has to be a point where these "side quests" are way too many (but sure you can argue that point as subjective too). Just because it's not officially recognized in game, doesn't mean the player cannot do it. By all means, FC all the files to your heart's content. It's more of a question of whether you want these stats to be considered "officially recognized on FFR" or not. This is what I'm debating about, not if "FCing all files is considered fun or not".

Again, it's fair to say that you find it meaningless. However there's no reason for the game to stay static regarding its optional content if others find interest in the changes. I'd even argue that it brings diversity for the ones who may want different things to go for.

Also your example is Only applicable if the amazing counts were to be made visible somewhere that isn't related to how skill is computed, otherwise it wouldn't be an optional thing anymore wrt what FFR considers the main goal.
