I Never Metaplot I Liked...

Metaplots: Those wretched things that pencil-and-paper RPG writers inflict on us because they can't get it through their heads that they're not writing a fucking novel.
ARGH! I hate metaplots. They seem to be nothing so much as a way to steal player creativity and channel us into mindless game-violence, by denying us players a meaningful existence in the gameworld.
Does anybody have a good, compelling reason to have these horrid things?
