Hopefully you can see how "this will probably only make the problem worse" doesn't quite stir people's stumps the way "this will create a new problem that we've worked very hard to avoid up until this point."
- namuol 9y ago> this will create a new problem that we've worked very hard to avoid up until this point Sorry, could you elaborate? Not sure what you meant here.
