And as for your "Normal people ... believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it" quote - you wouldn't believe how much I despise that saying. How the hell are you going to find out how something ticks if you take that attitude - you have to play with things to find out what will break them.
And one last thing - I hate slow play on the golf course - that Engineer made a perfectly sensible suggestion to me

The quote "If it ain't broke, Don't fix it" applies not to finding out how something works, but to those idjits who make changes just for the sake of making a change rather than useing their brain to see if the change is needed! I can't tell you how many times some goofball has patched a perfectly operating system, only to find out that the patch wasn't researched enough and ended up introducing fatal flaws and days of customer outage....If it ain't broke! Don't Fix it!
