This sort of thing happens with subjects where it's difficult, time consuming, expensive, or risky to get the actual information you want.
Feelings are more present and real. It's a mistake to expect that anyone will ignore their feelings. The question is how to get upstream of those feelings.
I had a big anger problem when I was a kid - my dad told me that if someone can make you angry, they control you. It's hard to tell someone they are being controlled while they are angry though.
Sometimes people are happy to be angry because it makes the world simpler. All I have to do is be angry, and this guy will fix things for me. And maybe that guy fixes things, or fixes one thing, but later things get worse again, because just being angry and trusting someone to fix things doesn't work.
Humans are very smart animals, but the world is very complicated.
