I think a little of it would go a long way for me, personally, but I'm curious about others experiences.

I don't understand the appeal. There are far cheaper, easier, safer ways to party.

Never been, but I have to assume it's like saying, "we don't need to get takeout, we have perfectly good leftovers in the fridge."

People like a new experience, they like a destination, it seems like the point is to be out of your comfort zone with a bunch of others who are doing the same, not "safe and easy". The specific location is probably not important, but the remoteness of it would obviously contribute to the novelty of the experience.
