It’s generally best to assume experts in other fields are doing things for good reasons, and if you don’t understand the reason it might be something other than them being dumb.
When I argued here that Linux is still pain to maintain on my laptops, it wasn’t because it’s not possible. I just didn’t have enough willpower.
People who jumped on me because of this were still idiots, because they thought that their even less knowledge (what were the error messages, my exact setup, etc) can be helpful for me, but still it would be wrong to state that I was unsuccessful because it’s not possible, or I had full knowledge back then.
Especially now, that I’m running Linux full time.
For example, I’m quite sure that you can solve this problem with a proxy, no matter what’s behind it. Maybe it’s infeasible, because you would need a custom proxy implementation, but it’s definitely possible.
