I think you've found a great way to sustain your enthusiasm for the hobby.  Or....  your addicted to processing in which case this type of thing is probably bad for your health.
I'll go with sustained enthusiasm.

Yep! I recon you're right
Way I see it, if there's stuff to play with and data to combine...why not

I love creating new works, it is art for me, where an artist might have a room with trestles and easels, canvases in different stages of completion, some that are being painted over, along with weird and wonderful pieces as well as some really great pieces, all over the place

...that is how I view my hard drive

I am not a perfectionist, the beauty of an image is not in the brand or cost of the equipment that took it and how perfectly it points, nor is it in how little noise there is or whether it was 1000hrs of exposure or not but rather how the image works as a whole, the colours, the framing so many things, not the least of which is the subject and what it actually is, too often the quest for processing perfection overlooks what it is we have actually captured...and lastly image capture and processing should be fun, lots of fun

when it stops being fun and becomes a competition or a way of identifying yourself as great...well, I recon it's gone too far.
