Well this is 9 days old so I doubt you or anyone will see it. But I really want to say that this is just how language evolves. Phrases appear, become common, and even change meaning, subtly or entirely, from the original. I don't think it's a waste of space. I think it conveys some information. If you remove it from a paragraph, the paragraph feels different. The meaning slightly changes. In a literal sense it may not mean anything, but I feel it does convey some intention from the speaker.
