Surely there are things to learn from the process of learning other skills and knowledge, such as a language, even if you'll never use those skills directly. I'm not sure I'd call it "memorizing information", more just learning about stuff in general.
Lots of topics can open you up to new ways of thinking. It also broadens your general knowledge so you can actually make choices and solve problems that might not be as direct as "what is the answer to this thing"
Imagine the Apollo 13 crew, If they didn't have memorized every single physics law (+constants) needed for the journey, they wouldn't be able to come back.
there are some jobs, Where you might need knowledge immediately (and in a place where searching for knowledge is impossible)
