I don't understand. It's difficult to not read the straw man "all seats should be equidistant from the baseball diamond"
I hear you saying a lot of shoulds which need justification by themselves, but even if I accept them, there's nothing we know of that can provide that.
A core contention between us is likely to be "how much of our current lives are we willing to risk to speculate toward the feel-good shoulds?" My answer is "all steps should be dramatically small and take a long time to make sure we can back out if we misstep." That's the core of what it means to be conservative, to me.
In other words, Hell is a long way down, we, all of us, have it too good to speculate dramatically in large ways or in fast ways.
