What the hell is the point of creating viruses these days?

A virus is worthless unless it allows remote access, remote control or
remote code execution on the infected machine.

Isin't the point of getting your code on a target machine to be able to
do something with the machine?  Like use it as part of a botnet, or
extract info from it?  Something that a virus is technically not going
to do for you, because if it does it wouldn't be called a virus - it
would be called a trojan?
