That's ironic. You're arguing against the idea that people don't want to change by refusing to change.



If you say so. I might point out that the idea I'm arguing against is "these institutions will keep sticking with inappropriate schedules forever, despite being constantly faced with the fact of their inappropriateness", whereas I am complaining about not being faced with new facts or arguments. But, look at it how you wish.


Are they faced with that "fact" constantly, though? I'm not convinced they are, or that it's clear that these things are facts.
