Fallacy.  I don't particularly care for the decision that every
computer should run Windows, but it's been made, so there's little
point in rehashing it now.

Do you see what I did there?

Incorrect decisions need to be questioned, fought, and reversed;
actually pushing a decision through neither makes it right nor
permanent.  In the scientific community they spend time trying to
disprove gravity and evolution, things we pretty much damn well know
are 100% accurate; if you feel something is wrong or just could be
done a better way it's worth pursuing.
