Yes. It’s similar to the difference between a mechanic and an engineer: a mechanic figures out something works, but the engineer can then take the next step to discover/know how. If someone cannot articulate or identify advantages, then they are pushing unproven, possibly wrong “religious” beliefs like a “mechanic.” Zealous communinal reinforcement is political, Macaroni and silly when there are no convincing arguments other than “because it’s new” or “because.”
