>>Surely you are not suggesting a disassociation between tools and results. If I wanted to cure cancer I wouldn't start with a Luke Skywalker light saber.
You might if you were an incentivized appointee of the light saber vendor and there was no penalty for being wrong. ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
