Absolutely right. There are many attitudes in modern life that apply the new=better consumerism fallacy where it doesn't belong: code, people, experience, restaurants, ideas, values, music, art, film, food, literature, and durable goods. Throwing away ideas, objects, and preferences of the past wholesale loses the lessons of history, reinvents the wheel, and repeats said history.
