Again, what I’m trying to imply is something that happens when people stay at their pasttime for extended periods of time and if the pasttimes have skills that you can get better at as you do it more. If Will likes Jazz as a hobby, but also wants to explore the galaxy, he chooses to enlist in starfleet instead of some jazz institution. He has his trombone and as he spends years playing it, he gets better and better at it, because he is able to do this instead of battling his depression in a holosuite somewhere.
Barclay is interesting; since he does have mental issues , but we see him being treated for them so that he can move away from his addiction and maladaptive behaviour. However, people still enjoy the holodeck reasonably.
I’ll throw this into the pile of intellectual bookmarks I would love to check out if I had more time and attention.
