If it were NOT important there'd be no need for protection. Go dig ditches and do something of value with your life instead of writng.
That some pulp of questionable value is included along with great philosophical and educational works is a GOOD thing. Protecting everything is far better than anyone deciding for us what's good.
Saying that "no one is going to die" is always a meaningless argument. No one need die in rape or arson or robbery or fraud, are those pointless too?
