Of course they don't. But you can't declare dependence on an ecosystem, simultaneously declare that the ecosystem is stupid, then have people take you seriously.
You absolutely can. If everyone in a neighborhood tossed dollar bills on the street cause they didn't like carrying anything smaller than a five, it would make sense to both make a living picking them up and say "why the hell are they doing this?".
The funny thing is if you put forth such a good argument that it changed everyone’s perceptions of the value of old cars then market forces would drive that price up, possibly invalidating the argument in the first place. So... shhh, keep it a secret!
