It’s not a waste if its sole purpose for existing is to rot on porches. It’s just a bonus if you can squeeze out another use, like becoming an emergency room curiosity.
Pumpkins are pretty low on my priority list, but entertainment isn’t really a good reason to throw useful stuff away. It’s a waste of water, waste of growing space, waste of fuel for harvest and transportation, and obviously a waste of food.

Is entertainment wasteful?
It certainly can be
Golf courses come to mind
Or cruise ships

Anything is better than the garbage. Pretty sure.
