I'm reminded of a similar question for which the following answer was
given: "Of what use is a baby?"
All the operating modes have value to those who use them at a personal
level. I prefer morse code. I can't tell you what value it has or what
it might be good for other than it is what I prefer. Who really cares?
Why do they need to be justified?

Packet is still used to connect Mir to ground for things like email and
lengthy instructions.

Please enjoy your hobby. Does this mean you derive no substantive benefit
from it? Has packet radio failed to progress into anything very useful? I
hope it has and will.

Didn't say it wasn't useful, nor did I say I received no benefit.
Just said that those are not deciding issues. It's a hobby.
I'm using packet radio right now, to post this article.
Why? Because it is fun to do it that way.

That's cool. Can you read these groups with Packet as well?
