Unpopular opinion: fluff is not pointless. Nor does it make a story uninteresting, unbelievable, or unrealistic. Likewise, angst is not the devil, but it’s also not necessary to make a story worthwhile or interesting. 

Plot is driven by characters. Characters are driven by conflict. Conflict =/= angst.

Don’t make writers feel bad because they write angst into their stories, and don’t make writers who stick to fluff feel like their stories aren’t interesting or as worthwhile because they lack a heap of angst.
