To put it simply, the value prop is an experience wildly different than normal experiences.

Can I rephrase this to: It’s a completely different experience that people usually can’t find accurate words to describe to someone that hasn’t been there?

Another question I have, If the experience is short-lived, what is the point?

[pravus]

No, you can't describe it. Your senses are overwhelmed in ways that don't have a real-world analog so there is no description that you can convey to others that's in any way accurate. It's the entire point of an altered state and is something that has to be experienced.

Many human activities are short-lived mood alterations.

Life in general is short-lived experience, so what is the point?

And this is why animal life went extinct... because what's the point of the orgasm.
