Zaps are the zero emotion way of exchanging value for a post. Removing the react would turn nostr gray and dull. Not all value can be represented by sats.
For the user who wishes to conserve their sats and still send their regards, reacts are tool for them. Just like an interaction in person, you don't give someone a dollar for making you smile. The reaction is by itself the reward.

quoting nevent1q…9v94I hope someday reposts and zaps completely replace the need for “likes”/🤙🏼.
Reposts and zaps are true value exchange…and have a real cost: your reputation or money.
Likes are superficial and exist only to inform an algorithm.
Relevance algorithms have their place, but they are best informed by a truly costly action.
