Like let’s say my sink keeps leaking so you suggest smashing it. Great, you fixed the leak, but I have no sink now.
Now if you came along and said you’d smash my sink and then replace it with a better sink, I’ll allow it.
People are not hung up on the disruption part. People are hung up on having no sink.
Too many people just want to do things but not actually think anything through. And then they are surprised it fails.
