It's not dogma. You are saying "what's wrong with using things once then shoving it in a landfill".
That behavior doesn't scale and is unsustainable.
And that mentality leads to ever increasing pollution.

At some point, we're going to want to dig up the resources in a landfill. They're much more concentrated than in the natural environment. The dogma is thinking landfills are one-way collection systems which grow without bound. As long as they're not leaking into the environment, they seem like perfectly reasonable ways of storing things we do not currently have a use for.
