This is a weird thought, but maybe it depends on how far you allow yourself to imagine, and what "acceptable imagining" is? I can imagine a few things that Higgs may end up being useful for, sure, they're "insane" or "wild" or "100% not how things could work you're nuts" - but I can still see ways it could benefit humanity if I was right about my imagination, and I'm not going to bother stopping my imagination.
