That's not a reason to give up on them. Use them and get used to the fact that some are really empty though they aren't really. Some talk pages are also archived, so they are not actually as empty as they look. One thing I think talk pages are very useful for is editors learning different editing techniques from each other. Some editors learn by looking through the edits others make, while other editors learn better while discussing on talk pages. And all editors should remain open to both learning new things and teaching others.
