Imagination and fact are not mutually exclusive, and it's not hard to find any number of ways large and small that the application of human imagination to problems supported by factual information about those problems has a strong correlation with thriving in a non novel sense. If, by thrive, you simply mean we enjoy a thing..and we treat imagination as antithetical to fact or utility-in-fact, then yeah..sure, but you aren't saying much and it certainly isn't the case example of human flourishing - we have a far more accurate term for that. Folly. To wit, shit we do when we're already doing so well...presumably by skillfully acting on factual information in other areas of our life... that we don't need our actions in a particular case or time to be fact based or have any specific purpose in fact.
Don't get me wrong. Been there, done that, had a great time, too....for sure.
