It seems more practical to develop reasoning systems that work well enough to explain what the confusing systems that were never designed happen to be doing. The useful sense of justification is not about describing what’s already happening, but about choosing well, making use of what you have available. There is no point in figuring out if what you have available is well-designed, apart from an act of redesign.

The other point would be the choice between confident epistemology and modest epistemology.
