But the same could be said for almost anything, for instance a car's engine is non-theoretical but could be otherwise done with a horse instead. I will still prefer the more advanced technology, but of course you do you
So..."No"
You're right. I've edited my question to make it easier for NFTs to qualify. After all, cars do the same as horses, but a whole lot better.
So what is a practical application of NFTs that, now that it's implemented, makes someone's life so much better?
No, automobiles and mass transit were a massive innovation that drastically changed everyone's way of life. Look at the current state of global logistics. You can essentially order any fruit from home and have it fresh at your doorstep at any time of year. You can't do that without engines.
This still works because cars ruined Western society in the guise of "advancement", so that's cool
