Change is not, itself alone, progress.
Progress can be a lack of change, if that change was regression in functionality, q.v. the large and growing number of shitty interfaces.
And by interface I mean everything from boeing's mistake right down to the controls on a fan heater of mine.
I guess I need to explain the latter. I've had a period of joint pain in my hands due to a developing food intolerance (now under control). The fan heater control was a dial, partly flanged for grip. But just a fucking little flange, so as not to stick out too much. Trying to operate that with your digits hurting was a bitch. It would have been literally unusable for someone with strength loss from advanced age and some decent arthritis on top.
Interfaces are a very broad category in my view, and we have far too many bad ones. Anyway, sorry for the rant, but don't confuse change with better.
