Consider how things might look from the other side:
I'm getting a big push from a fellow co-worker to try TDD. He thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread, giving examples of random articles that validate his point of view. I trust him and he is a hard-working person, but in this case I think he doesn't want to get out his comfort zone and at the end of the day, just isn't seeing the bigger picture. I don't want to overrule him, but it may get to it, because it gives a bad example to newer team members. And because for some random reason I have weight to throw around and he doesn't.
It's like I keep trying to tell him, 'Yo -- Been There, Done That... back in 2003, bro'. But still he keeps pushing and pushing and pushing.
Do you see the pre-set bias here? "I'm the one who's innovative and well-rounded and following best practices; he's the one stuck in his comfort zone, trotting out random articles to support his point of view."
