You wouldn't want to live in a society where everything acted on their emotions only.

  Yes, I actually want to live in a society where people are a lot more open when it comes to expressing their emotions and feelings compared to a society which actively tries to supress them and instead rely on other social tools. That's actually one of the few reasons why I've still not emigrated yet. The few countries which I now find economically stable are generally seen as "cold" when it comes to human interactions and expressing your feelings (Norway, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden) while the few other options which I found a lot more similar to my country (I now live in Romania) have been going through difficult economic times lately (Spain, Italy).

    You are missing the point. If people acted on their emotion (i.e. mostly controlled by our reptile brain) it would be a very violent society and quite frankly unsustainable.
