Yeah, but the most disappointing part is that you cannot say it out loud. Even acknowledging the problem will have all the swords pointing at you. So, everyone quietly hates their pointless tasks, but completes them somehow anyways. And things only get worse :) But, there's no reality check because there's no competition and hasn't been for such a long time that users are essentially led to believe that what they are getting is the best they can get.
