When you ask "what's the point of ___?" it's usually a criticism and can sound negative. So you should use it when you are angry and annoyed about something. Depending on your personality, you may not want to show people that you're angry unless you're close to them. A more polite way to ask "What's the point of this meeting?" would be:
"What's this meeting about?"
