I agree. Tradition is a strong motivator. Why do we do this if it doesn't make sense? Because it's TRADITION, duh. It helps perpetuate actions long after their meaning has been forgotten. (I'm not thinking of a particular example or anything, but man that sounded bitter. I actually love many traditions. ;) )
