Right, but simply saying, "that's the way we do it here" doesn't communicate all that. Hence, "that's the way we do it here" is not a good reason. "That's the way we do it here, and here is why we do it like that..." is how it should be phrased.

Agreed -- if you can't explain why "that's the way we do it here", then that's a problem.
