Such as spots for mob grinding? Caves to explore? When variety is added you could ponder on so much more.

Imagine randomly spawned chests or wandering arbitrary NPC's with a rare quest. Adventure to be had from the smallest things.

Running to an aetheryte increase our chance to experience such a said event.
Insta-teleporting reduces it completely. You miss out.
Since there is no inbetween now, what incentive do the devs even have to create a lucrative activity for taking a walk?
Keyword here is When. By now there is no point to going anywhere. Because there is nothing to see.
But if you consider, grind spots worth to see. Then oh well... I'm definitly not.
