2) novelty is something many people crave especially in our hyper specialized world. When your professional identity only lets you be one "thing" or play a certain role, hobbies can be an expansive exercise that reminds you of other identities. This is obvious to many folks who say "oh I love x because I get to be this side of myself..."
A cool thing about this is it can have many carryover effects, helping you see new possibilities even at work for who you are and how you show up
