You'd be surprise how much common sense people pay to hear in some different form and name. Yin/yang, ayurveda, etc. We love creating symbolism for things grandma said to their children for 1000 years.

Getting rid of the useless cruft lingering around from the past is just as useful as advancing the frontiers of knowledge. When people can stop waving crystals around and dipping their fingers in oil, they can finally get better results from pushing the big green button on an inscrutably opaque black box that goes "ding".~
