Well, people are also trying to compare an automatic shotgun with a semi-sutomatic. Semi-autos are always going to be stronger per shot and more ammo-efficient because they require more aiming, conservative thinking, and tactic as opposed to automatics, which do more damage over time at a lesser damage per shot but boast a larger clip size better suited for putting out a larger damage output in a small timeframe.

But I wholehearted agree with the how you think (although not quite as colorful). It really ust boils down to people are lazy and they like to do what works. For those who actually desire to be unique, different, and OPEN-MINDED, they are the ones that actually have the advantage as far as figuring out bigger and better uses for old things- things that a community discourages (read: insults/puts down/"omfg wtf stupid noob gtfo my strawberries!"/Etc.). Ironically enough, it's those people that actually make a difference in the community and become well-known for.

The moral of this: People are lazy and don't like to figure things out for themselves and do what works, when there's a possible better way. The people who do try to figure things out get put down and discouraged by their peers which may or may not stop their attempts before it's even started. Those that do stick to it and actually do find a better way, the Lazy-Loafers WILL notice and start using it (and it might take some time for this, but it'll happen). And the biggest irony of all, is that the very person they put down and told "It'll never work. It sucks and it's useless. Don't bother." ends up being idolized and, in a sense, worshoped for it.

All because they don't want to do it for themselves
