True. Just as not providing those meals doesn't fix that problem either, many temporary fixes get rejected on the reason that they don't address the underlying problems. True, they don't, but alleviating the effects has value as well.

Doing things right can have a much larger benefit than half-assing it and making a bigger mess in the future.
