I love Voyager, but what a pointless exhibition, a truly human endeavor, like building a pyramid to entomb a pharaoh and his beloved housecat except the chances robbers will ever find it are practically nil

The goal wasn’t necessary for someone to find it. That was of course part of it, but the Voyagers allowed us to study the outer planets, as well as near interstellar space.

Voyager would have been just as scientifically successful without that record. So why not put it on and gain social brownie points? Win/win.
Putting a disc on a probe is nowhere near as hard as making a pyramid.
