'i think soccer sucks too but i like to exercise in general, so how does this work?'
By your godawful defensive analogy, you make something in literally any other medium than a coding-based one
Seriously, don't pigeonhole yourself into one medium if you hate one of the most central aspects of creating something in that medium. You're a soccer hater complaining about playing while standing in the middle of the soccer field when you could be doing literally anything else
