Please give tea some love

What does coffee give you? Well there is energised I guess, so your sims can never sit still without running out of the door, lying on the floor and doing some other generally antisocial stuff.
Now tea. Tea can make you focused, happy, relaxed and more! Much, much superior to coffee. Do you all drink coffee there at EA. No tea drinkers at all?
More tea makers please :)
Okay, but those emotions don't do anything particularly worthwhile, beyond minor skill boosts and reskinned interaction names.
If they're gonna add new moodlets, they really need to make the emotions more useful, first, IMO.
Whoosh?
Coffee provides one moodlet
Tea can provide six moodlets
Therefore tea is more powerful in game in terms of choice of buffs.
Whether moodlets are adding worthwhile gameplay is a matter of opinion and not relevant to the topic.
Okay, so what do those moodlets do?
What is so valuable about your Sim becoming Inspired, really? Oh, they can paint a little faster, but who cares about a base game skill? I haven't touched painting in about 5 years because it's been absolutely done to death.
It used to be that the different moods would be useful for career performance in different careers, but nowadays any positive mood is all it takes, and you're not exactly gonna run out of sources for positive emotions--they're EVERYWHERE.
So what's so good about tea making your Sim emotional? Emotions are not worthwhile, and frankly they weren't even that interesting in the base game, except for the emotional deaths, which have been nerfed to ❤️❤️❤️❤️ and back.
So yeah, Maxis COULD add a new teapot to the game, but why would I use it?
Good grief. Read my original post. I was asking for more teapots, not more moods or stronger moods, Just more pots that work the same as the one and only pot we have. I have only one tea pot design to pick from in my build/buy but there are 8 coffee pots.
To be clear, I am requesting tea pots that look different
The one and only tea pot provides a choice of possible moods, whereas the coffee pot only provides one.
Now there is a great thread in General Discussion about how the moods system is broken. Maybe I should go and ask about my teapots there?
Good grief. Read my post to the end.
Why would I use those teapots when they don't do anything worthwhile?
