No, it doesn't (IMHO), hence my (admittedly) snarky response. The TL:DR version of the post is "I'm used to Fahrenheit and like saying and hearing 'in the fifties'". That's not an argument, it's an historical artifact (being what they were exposed and thus accustomed to) dressed up as preference. > new things are not always necessarily better than old ones. Who ever said they were? I cited specific examples. Please don't erect a straw man and put words in my mouth. The theme of what I said can be described as: - people resist change; and - when someone describes something as "better" what they normally mean is that they're used to it. |
