What's the point of paprika powder? It doesn't taste like anything and isn't even spicy?

Smoked paprika, when not old as fuck at least, tastes amazing. Regular paprika should just be used like a food dye.

You can blend it with chili powder to make mild chili powder that has roughly the same flavor but less heat.
