It's even worse than that. No one can think of anything to do with web3 other than make money off web3.
Most young technologies promise more than they can deliver, and the result is underwhelming or disappointing. Nuclear had regulatory and safety concerns that has slowed its adoption, early TVs had nothing to watch, self-driving cars haven't materialized though we can see progress, and machine learning gave us tags for photos.
web3 has given us Ponzi schemes and nothing else. Not decentralized finance, not usable currencies, not "stores of value", not even games that are fun. Cryptokitties was kind of the bright spot.
At least with other technologies, you could imagine benefits, even if they were cost-prohibitive or unlikely to develop soon.
The proponents of web3 cannot articulate any desirable future state that will be brought about by their technology.

And that in and of itself wouldn't be a problem if not for the fact that "The proponents of web3 cannot articulate any desirable future state that will be brought about by their technology. " it is trying to do things already done, and with zero value add except it theoretically rewards those who connive others into it first.
