Arguing adds depth to any relationship.
You can't call yourselves friends unless you've argued at least once.

Radio
When a radio dies, you don't say that the station signal is dead.
When a person's brain or body dies, why do you say the person is dead?

Famous people in everyday life
When reading books, I often think, 'Wish I could meet the author in real life! I'd understand their soul perfectly'.
Would I?
My nasty neighbor could be another Picasso. The blonde at the boutique could be Anna Akhmatova in her early years. The eccentric university professor could make a new Einstein.
Many problems seem justifiable and understandable when I read them in a book, in first person, and I can add my imagination to the author's personality.
They are much harder to understand when encountering them in real life, with real people, third person. Real life sinks all illusions.

School friends
True school friends for life are rare.
Schools mix children from different worlds, with different interests, backgrounds and paths. Most of them are bound to go separate ways after finishing school.
Schools could group children by interest/vocation rather than age/location.
