why does the value e in math have so many things based around it?

As the title says, how come the value e is special? it has functions and rules just dedicated to it, but what sets it apart from another random number?

The things where it’s special are all related.

It’s the constant of “self growth”. If you grow your something with a slope that is equal to the current value it will multiply by e within one time unit.

All other cases where e matters can in some way be related to exactly that situation
