Like jewelry for women. It does nothing but it looks ornamental and adds style and formality

Not everything is meant to be practical or serve a purpose. Some stuff just looks cool.

An important note on the cravat’s original function: I mention that it was a ‘sweat absorber,’ but it is also often cited as a means of protection, makeshift bandaging, and to hide soil on shirts. There are very few concrete sources to confirm any of these functions. Just current theories!

but it holds the collar in a way that isn't uncomfortable to the neck rather than using the button that's on the collar that is basically choking you

Can’t remember the source of this quote, and I’m paraphrasing: ”A tie is your masters leash that he cut, because he knows your aren’t going anywhere.” It has stuck with me.

Having a tie is nothing but another “Euro centric” patriarchal dress standard… it’s nothing special bro…
