I find that in big organizations, this is is a very frequent pattern. There is a commonly accepted approach that is obviously wrong to a subset of people. However, the people that are able to see the "wrongness" either don't have the political skills to accelerate a mental shift for the entire organization, or they choose to apply their limited "political leverage" to a different (often smaller and more tractable) problem instead.
