It doesn't matter on its own. It matters as a sign that one made a difference, and can still make a difference without being alive, simply because of their labor and creativity.

There's no reason to believe that you can build the world. People don't usually set out to do that. They dont feel as important as their contributions are eventually considered to be.

Even if that difference is just being more self-aware and influencing some people in that direction.
