Why is it silly? Because knot tying is about as harmless as it gets. This isn't the Twitter or LinkedIn app. From my memory of when I had one of these apps, it didn't even ask for my name.
People like making apps, and users seem to like them, too. Grow up.
What does this have to do with my argument? Maybe it's less likely to screw my system intentionally then, but it might still track me. How do you know the app is not as bad as Twitter or LinkedIn?

I am just showing a path to an alternate better future. If you don't like questioning the status quo because you think everybody is currently happy, fine. But asking me to grow up because I am worried about corporations having more access to my devices than they need seems unfair.
