I think this should not be downvoted. It's an honest expression of a plausible feeling. My dad always said his favorite video game was TurboTax because when he got a high score, it was real money. He loved spending hours every year optimizing his return. He was also the sort of person who really got into rewards cards and airline miles. It was satisfying to him to work the system in his favor. And he's not alone. I once accidentally ended up at a meetup of people who were airline miles fiends. They were very... dedicated. Personally, I think all of that stuff is tedious nonsense. I'm not interested in letting companies manipulate my behavior. If I'm going to work hard at something, it will be something that creates value. But I recognize I'm an outlier here. Some people would really miss doing their taxes because they've gotten good at it. Which is why it's good that the proposed laws will let them keep going if they want to.
