  This is a reflection of Zhuangzi's thought of "useless use". He believes that the world only knows the beauty of useful things, but does not understand the benefits of uselessness at all.

  Everything has its own uses, but some have not yet been discovered

  Any thing in the world, "useful" and "useless" are relative.

  uselessness seems more definable in the fields of nature science,where it can be expressed in discoveries,inventions and so forth
