Where do you sit when there aren't stumps and rocks? How do you illuminate your campsite when you can't build a fire? If you're a side sleeper and a light packer, where do you put your head?
A shovel serves very little purpose when the same can be done with a stick. You're making a poop hole, not a fox hole. I've never seen someone bring a shovel hiking for that purpose.
This is my electric lantern. It's less than 4" tall and puts out a lot of light. With cordage, you can hang it over your campsite and have an overhead light. Especially useful when camping where there are fire bans (which is very common for me). I don't think another tool can recreate this, so it's a necessity imo.
An inflatable pillow like this weighs less than 3 oz and packs up to the size of a shot glass. Pretty much non-existent in a pack and is a must-have for me.
A camp chair is certainly a luxury item, but the one I use weighs about 1 lb. I am able to squeeze it where trekking poles would go if I packed them. You make a fair point about this one, but if there isn't anything to sit on where you camp, then it's a pretty necessary thing to have. It's a little redundant since I bring a hammock, but there's no guarantee I'll be able to find trees that I can hang a hammock on in camp. And you'd be very lucky to stumble across a few perfect sitting stumps or large rocks at a backwoods campsite.
Those items hardly even compare to a shovel in terms of bulk and usefulness.

Love this pillow. I've got wide shoulders and I'm a side sleeper. I have the large and it fits me great.
Super awesome lightweight inflatable pillow.
I've got this pillow and it's frankly awesome. I'd use it at home if I wasn't afraid of our cats clawing it. I've used it on airplanes, during trips, etc. and it's really really comfy (and packs up tiny!).
Tarps work, but they're heavy and take up lots of room. The actual hammock rain-flys aren't all that much quieter really, but they do help you go further while carrying a pack. Honestly, a tarp would probably be more useful for a range of things (since you can throw it on the ground and walk on it, use it to move leaves, or drag/cover firewood, etc).
But most of my experience is just multi-day hiking, so I haven't had much experience trying to set up camp with a tarp outside of car camping. They work great for that! Though the only time I've had an opportunity to use a hammock while car camping, I've always also had an ez-up so I just drag that over the hammock because I'm lazy and like the extra room.
The MSR HH NX is a very nice tent, very well made and livable. It is kinda narrow though. Overall, I really enjoy using it when conditions aren't right for a hammock.
