Tradition is a set of solutions for which we have forgotten the problems. Throw away the solution and you get the problem back. Sometimes the problem has mutated or disappeared. Often it is still there as strong as it ever was.

Donald Kingsbury, Courtship Rite

Basically, have some humility when you propose to throw away old solutions. That may be the best solution to an old problem to which you're completely blind/naive.
