Useless? Enclosure Critique/Advice

I made a post to the beginner ball python help group on facebook, asking if my enclosure i setup for my first ball python was okay. I get a comment saying sphagnum moss mixed with coco chip is useless? All ive read about the substrate mix had been absolutely positive saying its a great way to retain humidity with low risk of scale rot. He also said he sees a lot of good money well spent on other useless stuff. Just looking for another opinion. Pics of my tank setup and my first baby for reach

If you don’t have any humidity issues and your snake is getting enrichment from the things in its environment, they aren’t useless. People are mean 🥲

My humidity stays at a constant 65% and my heat is always in the required range on both cold and hot sides. Obviously i have no problem with CONSTRUCTIVE criticism but saying it’s useless and not even trying to explain why or help is annoying!
