Why wouldn't it be cause for joy, even elation?
I understand we have the pesky problem of work and time being interchangeable for money. But except for that, it's pretty exciting.
As someone who grew up poor, and then used to be on food stamps and other state aid as a young adult, that's a particularly pesky problem. Dread is a more apt feeling than joy or elation in that situation.
Out of sight, out of mind. It is unexciting because in that future, there is nothing to think about related to this topic. What is exciting about something that is irrelevant for humans since nobody looks at it anymore?
