I agree with all of these except
"Writing is pointless if it's not emotional in some way."
No, there are more purposes to writing than that. Inform, persuade, entertain, you probably know. I have a few stories in writing just because they're cool ideas, and I have other stories that are emotional and allegorical and metaphorical.
If you actually mean that if you're writing characters without emotions, then I agree.
I mean in fictional writing. Even with a cool idea, it needs emotion to be powerful.
