This is where I don't get the duality of how people perceive the internet as a medium.

We want the products we build that aren't (to counter your definition) "in the real world" to give us salary, a future, wealth, whatever... but you flip the viewpoint and someone doing something they wish to do "not in the real world" is completely meaningless (and this implicitly has no value). The fact that people achieve A surely means there are endless scenarios where B is not true.
