That you can't do something well or at all without understanding it is philosophy. Philosophy is weak in the sense that it exists on the same level as aesthetics or instincts. So it's fighting instinct in a system built to make crowd management through instinct convenient, - in disadvantaged position.

Also NT people like to champion their stupidest ideas as a banner to assemble under. Stupidest exactly to exclude any rational reason, so that only the feeling of community would remain.

They don't always say what they mean. They might say "this thing is better", but what they mean is "I'm with the group which distinguishes itself by support for this thing, don't be against us".
