I'm doing it as a hedge against this supposed recession. If the stock market takes a huge shit, I'll sell my cash position and dump it in. If not, well, it's still 5%!

I was kind of like you during a large part of the 2010s. I regret it quite a lot now... I'd advise reading Even God Couldn’t Beat Dollar-Cost Averaging by Nick Maggiulli and What if You Only Invested at Market Peaks? by Ben Carlson, these contributed a lot to me changing my view.
