N-SING: a N, poss N 3. The point of what you are saying or discussing is the most important part that provides a reason or explanation for the rest. ‘Did I ask you to talk to me?’—‘That’s not the point.’... The American Congress and media mostly missed the point about all this. N-SING: the N 4. If you ask what the point of something is, or say that there is no point in it, you are indicating that a particular action has no purpose or would not be useful.

  - 12c., a merger of two words, both ultimately from L. pungere "prick, pierce." The neut. pp. punctum was used as a noun, meaning "small hole made by pricking," subsequently extended to anything that looked like one, hence, "dot, particle," etc., which was its meaning as O.Fr. point, borrowed in Eng. 14c. The fem. pp. of pungere was puncta, which was used in M.L. to mean "sharp tip," and became O.Fr. pointe, which also passed into English. The sense have merged in Eng., but remain distinct in Fr. Extended senses are from the notion of "minute, single, or separate items in an extended whole." The verb "to indicate with the finger" is first recorded 1470. Pointer "item of advice" first recorded 1883. Point blank (1571) is from Fr. blanc, the white center of a target, with the notion of standing close enough to aim without allowance for curve or gravity.
