Why Do People Keep Using Bad Tools?

Fleeting

See we make tools to help us in our work, shape your tools, don’t let your tools shape you, tool

Could it be:

  • the power of habit?
  • the lack of self introspection to realize the tool has become bad at its work?
    • or the lack of update of the introspection? the tool was good at some point and we did not realize the context changed but not the tool.
  • Something linked to cognitive dissonance?
    • the fact we don’t want to be said we made a bad choice because we are people that don’t make bad choices?
    • the fact we don’t want to be said we did not realize the tool became not adapted to the context?
