I partly agree, but a tradition that developed under certain conditions isn’t necessarily optimal under different conditions (e.g. much better technology and medicine, less need for manual labour, fewer stupid people (at least for now), etc.).
Otherwise, we’d be even better off just executing our evolved adaptations, which had even more time to develop.
But in a practical sense these things can’t be computed from first principals, so it is necessary to rely on tradition at least to some extent.
