Very much with you on that score. The thing I think it's important for the anti-treatment camp to consider is that a treatment model can include the desirability of retaining any of the aspects one sees as positive. I don't want to be free of mild halluciantions/visions or hypomanic highs that don't interfere with the way I want to live my life but, there was all that donkey dong suckage I did want rid of and it's possible to target and treat only that.
