This is a valid point. When I first joined #nostr, I thought stacking was so important; it was a mantra, but once I saw so many #nostriches randomly *zap me. Their generosity loosened my desire to stack on nostr, (stacking is for cold storage IMHO). I began to feel the joy of zapping early and often. I still like/favorite too, when my wallet gets zapped way down. It’s a journey, and the OGs like Jack or the devs are on different milestones than noobs.

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.
