Why is it pointless for sister chromatids to crossover?

Crossing-over occurs between non-sister chromatids, since (prior to crossing-over) sister chromatids are genetically identical (i.e. one is a duplication of the other). Therefore, if sister chromatids underwent a cross-over, no genetic variation would occur.
