>Test-Driven Development (TDD) doesn’t make sense to me, especially when requirements change frequently.

If requirements change SO fast that it's enough to render the tests that validate them completely obsolete then writing any kind of production code at all makes no sense.

Spikes, customer research, POCs, MVPs... these things all make sense but none of these are production code and hence none of them require TDD.

>Ultimately, while TDD might work in stable environments

i.e. production code. Not all of us write production code and thats fine.
