Stupid is as stupid does right? Also when the going gets tough, the tough get going. And don't forget rome wasn't built in a day. A quitter never wins, and a winner never quits.
Hacker News is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get.
For the record, I don't really advocate disobeying or even arguing with air crewmembers. That's a well-considered holdover from maritime law that probably goes back a thousand years: their boat, their rules. However, if nobody pushed back, the annoying parts of the rules would never be fixed.

Following stupid rules empowers stupid people.

It does sound a bit contrived, but I agree. Following rules 'cause they're rules doesn't set a good precedent.
