But has not the capability of such a feeling, when used rationally, led to all the discoveries man has made improve his life - i,e, there are benefits to such feelings as well?
Hello Plogsties

Buddha-Dhamma has no issues with feeling. It has declared feelings are not suffering. From feelings comes the various kinds of craving. Craving is that which can be problematic.

But to give you my opinion on your question, yes, I agree.

It is our feelings of discomfort that led to all the discoveries man has made improve his life.
