I have a love hate relationships with server wipes. I dislike them because I have to start all over again but that is also why I like them. Sometimes life isn't easy, and you have to remake yourself, you essentially have to be your own tabula rasa (blank slate), but in the end it is worth it, and and you don't always have to lose everything to start fresh. Every time you start over you learn something from the previous time, and I feel you can actually learn more from starting over than fixing things along the way. For example I started a crocheting pattern for the big poro but decided to relearn it instead of going off of the original pattern and I feel like I learned more starting over than just fixing things along the way. There are a lots of times that I do this with my patterns, sometimes it just isn't working so I dismantle the whole thing and start again, learning from my previous mistakes.
It may not always be fun and can definitely be time consuming but each time we have to rebuild these bases we learn a lot. The first time we made this we didn't go off of one central point so everything was the wrong way. The walls weren't parallel with each other which caused the floor to be atrocious, with cracks everywhere and all sorts of unevenness it made my chest hurt because it looked so awful. But the second time we made a T shape going out so that way the walls and floors would all be even (a pretty good idea on my part if I do say so myself). This time we learned about making a great crafting room for things to run efficiently and how to change the path up so that it would be even harder for invaders to enter our base. Having to start over from the beginning can really be annoying but in the end it is worth it, and when you get to start fresh you are able to apply those things that you learned the last time more easily, because your previous mistakes are not getting in the way. It can be a tough lesson but starting over is okay, and in the end it can definitely be worth it.

From a developers standpoint you kinda have too, once updates happen it could break the server. It makes it so no huge bugs or glitches occur. Once the game is complete there shouldn't be any need for it.
