Unfortunately most human beings rather the devil they know than the devil they don't, sad but true. To get anything to work, it must run parallel to human nature in the main. Human nature takes eons to alter. Some of these instinctive acts are still relevant, others are not. Your eyelid closing before an object hits the eyeball. Very beneficial. Walking a path that others have walked upon, means you don't fall into the quicksand and get swallowed up. The known path is littered with the graves of pioneers. If all were pioneers, then there would be no one to bury them. Using windows because you know it and not Linux, because you don't. Not wise at all. But a natural inclination.
