All math is completely useless.

The Mandelbrot set is just sort of a quirky iterative function. We could define any number of arbitrary functions that don't really do or mean anything.

Fractal analysis as a whole, though, has tons of applications.

For now. And does a pretty picture not have a quality in and of itself?

>cities bad
You know all the land on Earth is only like 2% covered by cities, right, you can still find the bottom picture in the remaining 98% (though you'll never actually see that, that's been manipulated to look prettier than it actually appears IRL), and if you include the oceans that becomes 0.3% and 99.7%

is it really chaos if it does the exact same thing at the exact same point every single time?

It's not just a butt. It's infinitely many butts. The more you zoom in, the more butts there are.
It's butts all the way down.

It's kinda scary that no matter where you zoom in on those edges, you eventually land on same image you had from the start. Like universe contained inside a larger universe

Calm down. It's a toy model for fractals. Fractals are useful because they're fucking everywhere.
