I think to talk about being useful, it's kinda unfair to criticize people who aren't scientists to be not as useful as scientists. I knew from the beginning even when I was annoyed by Akari forcing her scientist beliefs to anyone.

Well, scientists, like fighters, are also can be different. You don't have to look far for an example: Rinna from Drive worked much more for comedy than for practical use. As for scientific beliefs, wasn't she herself being asked to believe in mysticism because of Takeru's transformation into a ghost? Plus, didn?t it turn out at the end that she was right and there was no rational (albeit fantastic) explanation?
