I don't know. It's really fucking cool to hear a Lydian tune but it's true that if you know the major scale, you know every other mode

Yup, exactly.

It's the application of modes that is not redundant and also not as easy.

This is because the concept of applying modes is misguided to begin with.

Square peg in a round hole.

More than that, it's really a shell game to begin with. When you apply a mode and use it in a song, are you really going to play the notes in succession from the correct note to its octave? No? Is it really going to be a straight ascention every time with no variance? No? And if not, then what actually designates what you're doing as staying in that mode, aside from the fact that it's your intention?

Pink elephants have more substance as a plausible concept than modes.
