Of course it's assuming that's how advanced propulsion tech works. But it is useful to try to detect, just in case that's how it actually turns out to work, no?

And if we detect something interesting, like a potential warp bubble collapse, well, that also gives us a strong hint that it's possible, helping us to direct research in the right path.

Detecting techno-signatures of aliens would be super useful for us.

And of course there's the sheer awesome factor of if it turns out to be the case

Could you imagine being the dude who makes that discovery? Prepare to have shit named after you for centuries
