Hello
Never be sorry for your point or what you think , I do think you have to understand the fact that bitcoins is actually something different for everyone. Bitcoins as a whole only have value depending on the person.
For some people it's a form of investments
For some people it's easy money
For some people it's a currency even though you might think that's absurd but many business have started using bitcoins now
For some people it's a way to make transactions happen internationally.
It is indeed a very different form and I do think only Mr. Satoshi can tell why he invented bitcoins but I do think it was to tackle capitalism and to have something other than fiat and stocks to invest it , something which is free from control of the centralized bodies. I think he wanted people to be more in control, more free if I may say.
Plus I do think that it started out simple but it became a moment after that. Bitcoins have been used by many countries to stand against the oppression of the state and the army. Take the case of venezuela. Bitcoin is itself a way to make your own case out of. You can use it in any way that you want. It's that versatile.
It's not just money trust me.
It's way more than that.

Based on a philosophical standpoint bitcoin is what people think about it. @OP makes his point of view and standpoint about what is Bitcoin cause in reality - Bitcoin hasn`t changed yet the perspective and issues underlying fiat problems and its vision (based on whitepaper) being a "peer to peer" payment system. In fact, people with little to no understanding of what is Bitcoin would think this way... Think again, institutions are not meant to control this system - it's for the people, right?
