George, we have a formal dining room. It has my grandparents old antique formal table and the chairs in there. Along with other antiques. We have had dinner in there just a handful of times since we moved in 20 years ago. We can get out the fancy dinner ware, and silverware but what the heck for?

It is just a pretty space to impress guests. I agree it is useless. My wife will disagree with you.

Happy wife = happy life. End of debate.
