I don't dislike it. In fact I like its long term strategy.
The thing I've never understood is in professional and work settings, people who insist on for example, starting a meeting by saying the cricket score. Has to be the most abstractly tedious small talk you could ever start a conversation with. Particularly if that person has no idea if anyone in the room likes cricket. |  |

It's just a way of signalling "Nobody wants this meeting to go on longer than necessary, do they? Let's just all keep our comments brief so I can get back to working on a spreadsheet whilst listening to Test Match Special on my headphones." |  | | |
