Why do you care about architecture?

"Why do you care about architecture?"

I think it's a genuinely, absurdly difficult question to answer.

I can tell you why I care (or at least should care more) about any other pursuit like physics, space exploration, medicine or even freaking video games. But I cannot come up with a convincing answer for architecture.

I can tell you why we should care about building properly. About the necessity of providing quality buildings for work and play. But not architecture specifically.

I think sports and music are sort of in this category of barely relevant but I assume that I'm simply not involved in it enough to give you a good reason. I mean I can give a good reason for video games, something society deems just as frivolous, if not more so, simply because it's a medium and a subject matter I'm deeply involved in, at least as a consumer and an observer. So it is possible to argue that given enough immersion in perhaps music, someone could give a impersonal response.

But not architecture. Almost a year and a half and I still don't quite get why people care about architecture specifically. Why is the design of buildings important to people? Why should it? Because not caring about it makes life hard? That's not a reason to do something. That's a reason not to do the opposite. That's like saying you should eat more veggies because eating Macs everyday is bad for you. That's just a reason not to eat Macs.

I think perhaps on a more enlightened note, what if this is not a question that needs an answer?
