I love asking what the purpose of things is. But in order to do that, you first have to know what the thing is, and in order to do that, you need to know how knowledge works.
Alternatively, asking what the purpose of something is can be a much richer definition of what it is than a pure description. And being embedded in this rich landscape of meaning can lead to richer conclusions about what knowledge itself is as well.
