What is the purpose of learning cursive?
You answered your own question with this:

I've only used cursive once since elementary school. That was to write this paragraph before I could take the GRE.
Would you have liked to forfeit the GRE, simply because you couldn't write in cursive?
You don't have to employ a skill all the time in order for it to be valuable. I hope I never come into a situation where I have to actually use the Pythagorean Theorem, but that doesn't mean I don't see the value in learning it.

to compare a method of transcription that was utilized for speed and aesthetic "beauty" to a fundamental mathematical theorem is fricking absurd.

I dont remember writing the GRE in cursive. I tend to use a print/cursive hybrid.

There are millions of people who don't take the GRE (the GMAT doesn't require this step, I took both). I don't think they really even checked to ensure that I wrote it correctly or anything. Basically I could have faked writing in cursive if I needed to
