> It's also incredibly dangerous to say we should follow a practice because of how it "feels." Does it "feel stable" or "feel understandable" or "feel fast?" Who cares. Show me the value, don't try to give me the tingles! I disagree. First of all, how something feels says something about people's intuition which is a decent indicator of reality. More importantly though, how something feels affects how (or even if) people will use it. A system which 'feels' wrong will be under-used and generally worked around. This makes it a bad system in the real world, regardless of 'how great it would be if everyone used it'. It's similar with vaccines. The fact that to many people a vaccine 'felt wrong' made the vaccine actually less effective at blocking the spread of corona. The value of something depends very much on 'how it feels'.
