    Cool of you to share, I'm impressed of your mindset! Innovation is what drives civilisation forward, those who don't have the skills to adapt to change will push back against any improvement in technology. However any civilization though history that has failed, to stay on top of innovation in any part of technology in society, they domed themselves to the junkjard of history. You never know what advantage in technology that will save the day, life or death, for you as an individual or as a society. So anyone, everything & anywhere needs to be aiming for improving technology. That's the mindset of winners as opposed to the looser of the Darwin race for life.
