It's like saying gold is too valuable to be useful because 1 ounce of gold is worth $2000, and what if you want to buy a simple Happy meal? How could you do that with gold? The answer would be to use grams of gold, not ounces. Or fractional grams of gold. You don't need to spend 1 SAT minimum....
When you use BTC wallets it's divisible up to 8 decimals, 0.00000000 where are you able to use/spend fraction of Sats?

"A satoshi is the smallest unit of a bitcoin, equivalent to 100 millionth of a bitcoin."
