But people do get attached to their creations, they don't want their things deprecated/removed, since to them it may feel like their thing is thrown away or wasted work down the drain.
While they may not obviously state it as such, it can be the underlying reason driving their arguments (e.g. sunk cost fallacy).
- burakemir 2y agoMaybe this is also about the desire to create, which of course is also common in engineering. It does not contradict my argument that the cost of maintenance and operations is being ignored eg when one creates things all the time and never removes stuff. And it should be possible to measure or estimate that cost.
