Reminds me a bit of a quote I heard recently: "Tradition is a set of solutions for which we have forgotten the problems. Throw away the solution and you get the problem back."
"Tradition is a set of solutions for problems that don't exist anymore".
An example of the latter that immediately springs to mind is circumcision.
That'd be reductionist rationalists' position.
It’s like calling someone conservative for saying that migration is taking away jobs. So what? What is the point you are making here?
Is the point to reframe the idea in such a way that it would be easier to reduce their opinion to the outer group associated with the name?
Of course, sometimes the underlying problem has gone away entirely or been dealt with by a different solution. Then you run into traditionalists defending ridiculous things with arguments that make no sense.
