What is even point of fusion ?

I mean , it's energy is most likely gonna be more expensive than fission and more expensive than solar , which both are already perfectly safe and viable green sources of energy , which already work today and can still be technologically improved

Like the more I read about fusion the more I start to think that this technology is never gonna be commercialy adopted and at best case we are gonna make like a commercial fusion reactor in 80 years and then nothing is gonna happen , because economists are gonna realize that it's pretty lame , and all that research was just a waste of money .

It seems like we are overengineering something for nothing

But I am by no means an expert on the topic , so I would like to hear your arguments .
