An accounting agree is better IF it is of interest to you, your field, your goals, etc. So you think hospitality isn’t useful and it turns out you don’t like the field. Figure out what you want to do and what you need to do to get there. It’s not one size fits all. Practical is not everyone’s goal. For some it should be and needs to be.
