Saying "this fixes a substantial part of the problem but not everything" is a surefire way to get nothing done.

Same in healthcare. Somebody makes a proposal and immediately people come out of the weeds claiming "But look at this thing! this is much worse" and in the end nothing ever changes.

Right, if there isn't a simple solution that can be explained in a headline a large number of people jump to "there is nothing (useful) that can be done".
