"Its only point"=what is does=store images for other projects
I was not referring to the cabinet makers, just the filing cabinets. It was the closest metaphor for Commons my caffeine deprived brain could think of. Following along it, a cabinet maker is one who makes cabinets. The cabinets themselves are repositories.
Commons does a lot more than only store images for other projects..
Please note that there are a lot of people busy with maintaining images, or making images better. The goal of Commons is to make a archive full of free media files, not only for the WMF.
