I'm generally interested in philosophy relative to most normal people as opposed to philosophers, and, to normal people, there are many very real questions that are worth answering, including those relating to meaning. Those questions seem like they can be summarized as "What is going on, what should I do, and why?" > Finding "a" reason to live matters far more than finding "the" reason to live. Would we rather be happy or would we rather be right? This framing seems strange to me. When you make this statement you already make a claim: that the reason to live is to seek happiness.
