But that you don't see the value that justifies it doesn't mean that there
won't ever be someone who does.

Obviously not. But it is not a question of ever, because people
are using them now.

 Similarly, we can't say that there will
never be someone who can think of a use for mensi that does not involve
fetsi  (imagine when we meet an alien species which might be
asexual.  Someone's father legally adopts a child of this species into the
family.  Would it be wrong to call that new family member "mensi"?
