No, it's just a player not enjoying spears and letting us know about it. Spears are fine for what they're intended and unless a fancy new spear arrives with future biomes/crafting, I wouldn't expect spear to be high on the list of weapons to carry around past the Meadows. It's just a sharpened stick (or maybe has a sharp rock tied to the end)--that's all it is. Perhaps a better spear will come along and the OP will rejoice.
