Could not disagree more with you.

It is far from pointless. First of all the next person in line feels good, because a stranger helped them with no underhanded motives. Then there is a high chance they will pass it on, getting a second dose of feeling good, because most people feel good about helping others.

That's a double dose of feeling good. I don't see what is being cancelled out here.
