That's probably closest to me. I have no real interest in gaining achievements but I do understand why they are in games so I accept that are there as I don't find something annoying if I can so easily ignore it.
Of course I certainly don't have a problem if people like to chase them but I just don't. The one I don't understand though is those using a guide to tell you exactly how to do them. That crosses the line into you're not playing the game any more but are just following a set of instructions.
My caveat on achievements is where they are really extra content so Talos Principle is a good example of that. They are gold stars that can be found which unlock extra puzzles to do. That makes far more sense to me.
