What would you prefer? That some people drive slightly over the speed limit? Or a spot where people suddenly slam on the brakes to avoid getting a ticket, endangering those who might be behind them with their sudden change of speed?
Because the latter is what these devices tend to do.
It doesn't have a 1% chance, it has essentially a 0% chance. The IRS has NEVER gone after an established church, and they never will because of the massive can of worms it would open. While astronomically speaking, nothing is impossible, there comes a point where something is so improbable that attempting it is wasted effort. In this instance, it distracts from people coming up with actual solutions because they're led to believe that the false solution is worth pursuing.
How many ways do I have to say it? I don't need to know or provide an alternative to be able to recognize the current suggestion as bad. How tf are you not grasping this?
Let me try ANOTHER metaphor. Let's say someone asked us both what the square root of 294,797 was without using a calculator. I say "I don't know" and you say "I think it's 4". I don't have to know the correct answer to know that your answer is wrong. And it doesn't magically become worth considering just because it's the only answer that was given. It's still wrong.
Jump on one foot and whistle.
What's that? You don't think that will do anything and it's an unhelpful suggestion?
Unfortunately you just established that you can't criticize dumb ideas unless you offer a working alternative, so I guess we'll all just have to stupidly go along with my jump-on-one-foot-and-whistle strategy until then.

How about we throw a bunch of birthday candles in the nearest lake?
And remember, you can't tell me that's stupid and unproductive because by your logic, that would clearly mean you are advocating for doing nothing.
Are you starting to see how nonsense your argument is?
It's more pointing out how the suggested action is bullshit. It's like if you had a leaking roof and someone said to blow soap bubbles on it. And then when you point out that's a nonsensical solution that has no chance of working, they reply "oH, so YoU juSt waNT to Do NotHinG anD bE apaThEtic?"
Pointing out that someones suggestion is a non-solution is not an endorsement of doing nothing. It's pointing out that the suggestion is not helpful and distracts from actual solutions.
Pretending the IRS would actually go after a church is ignoring the reality of the situation. I don't want suggestions that would only work in some deluded made up fantasy world.
Ok cool, you better not fucking vote then or you're a hypocrite.
Still there, but that's more of a failing with education costs than a problem brought about by reliance on last-minute, stress-motivated, ADHD superpowers.
Copious amounts of ethnicities also break the immersion for me. I'm 100% for modern inclusion, but if you're showing 17th century England and every other character is black or Asian, you pretty much have to be willfully ignoring history. That's not even getting into how others interact with the character, just the fact that those ethnicities would be rare in those times and locations.
"Security! Throw those 2 and a half people out the window!"
High schoolers ride busses too. They're a little bigger than 40lb twerps at that point.
