This post is silly, just consider its premise reductio ad absurdum. I suppose prisoners in solitary confinement are the most privileged among us. Boredom creates real pain that over long enough time leads to psychological problems. The mind doesn't want to be idle.

Boredom is an incredibly unpleasant experience and there is nothing with wrong with wanting to avoid it.
