I actually have. A can of tomatoes is (or at least was back then) cheaper than a pack of pasta, and can also last for more than 1 or even 2 servings. If I add (just) butter to the pasta, I’m making it worse because I’m one of the seemingly 5 people on earth who don’t like butter.
But my comment was meant for pasta with (any) sauce, see my other reply.
Even a little bit of butter is great! Also teaches you to cook pasta correctly.
If you’re doing anything with pasta that involves butter you’re doing it wrong, but you do you.
You have luckily never been that poor :-)

Well you do you then. It was pasta + butter, not anything else.
