The things that we are typically interested in have very clear patterns. In a way, if we find that there are no patterns, we don't even try to do any forecasting.
"The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences" [1] hints that there might be some value here.

But you wouldn't want this model for file upload storage usage which only increases, where you would put alerts based on max values and not patterns/periodic values.
