mRNA is not useless. Our retarded approach to mRNA is useless, except for killing/maiming people. And on that one front, it seems to be super-useful for the enemies of humanity.
EDIT: I will add "another note". If you will bear with me, the language of DNA, RNA and mRNA could be viewed as a Divine symphony. Meanwhile, we just discovered these things, and have in the last ~50 years or so managed to be able to play a fairly decent version of "Chopsticks" on this Divine Piano we've discovered. So now, of course, we think we're Mozart. Mozart is not the Divine Pianist (if you will), and he would freely admit that. But "Barely-managing Chopsticks" Us thinks we're ready for Carnegie Hall.

I have that same view.
