This may be an unpopular opinion, but I kind of agree. If your whole life is taken up by these types of hobbies, it’s probably not great for you. Having one of these that you enjoy in moderation along with some more traditionally “manly” hobbies is a good idea. I’m a Lego model builder, but I also do plenty of other hobbies, such as running, hiking and boating (sometimes fishing too but I suck at that lol).
I've a better idea and it's what I follow in life. I will do what I like as long as it causes no harm to anyone else or impedes on their private property. In return, I will not compel you to do what I do and leave you be. And no, The Religious Hippie being offended by my choice of hobbies in life is not "harm".
The alternative is to have everyone forced to work and micromanage every minute of their day to maximise revenue. And then remove those who are not maximising revenue from society as dead weight. There's a saying - "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". Even the likes of Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos need time to decompress and wind down.

Being a useless lout doesn't earn you a place in society. The same goes for aging childless spinsters.
