Often "Just" is... justified. At least, as a question to understand why someone is doing something the hard way.

Yes, and I often do that by asking a question like "Why don't you just use [X]" i.e. Someone is saying something like

"Transferring files between these two servers is too hard. It keeps timing out and then I have to look to see which files have already been transferred and manually skip those. Sometimes a file is present but incomplete and finding those is even more work"

Why don't you just use rsync?
