If you're a tourist, RATP will try to sell you the overpriced Paris

Yes , but the visite card gets you discounts of a shed load of
tourists sights unlike the normal tickets.

As far as I can tell, the few sites (hardly a "shed load") where you get
a discount are mainly sites that most tourists would not visit
otherwise. I certainly have never felt the need to pay for any of these
dubious attractions.
