We have no policies against useless packages. I have faith that the AUR web system + devs/TUs will be able to keep AUR useful, also in the future, despite of this, though. :)

That is incorrect. There are policies: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_User_Guidelines#Submitting_packages - Make sure the package is useful. Will anyone else want to use this package? Is it extremely specialized? If more than a few people would find this package useful, it is appropriate for submission. - The AUR and official repositories are intended for packages which install generally software and software-related content, including one or more of the following: executable(s); config file(s); online or offline documentation for specific software or the Arch Linux distribution as a whole; media intended to be used directly by software.
