This feels like a good idea. But let's try an experiment (which admittedly is probably not where you meant to take it):

Imagine I'm a writer of fiction. I write a story that I think is interesting and compelling. I put it out to the world. No one reads it.

I wrote it for myself, so that's great. But I think many writers (and many people who make things) want to do more than write for themselves (or solve their own problems).

When you put work into a thing like a story, it feels wasted if no one else ever reads it.
