Yes, 2 hours of Google on a high salary is expensive but how expensive is it to run businesses where important things are implemented in macros that are barely up to the task? Suppose the macros-patched-together system is really hard to change, breaks easily, or just plain stops working one day and no one knows why...then how much time will be wasted? Besides, hardware will fail. Windows and other programs eventually end-of-life their support. Organizations that refuse to even consider making changes will eventually feel a lot of pain. "Poking the bear" is exactly what is needed in most organizations. While it would be crazy to change everything overnight, it's a good idea to periodically look at everything and see what it would take to improve things.
