No, you are confusing things - reasons are not necessities.

They're not sufficient reasons to you.

You're confusing an excuse with a reason.

martin_a | karma 5171 | avg karma 2.79 · | 2019-09-04 16:02:11+00:00

Those are made up reasons. If you have a solid definition of what is needed and what not, this is no problem at all.

do you need a better reason?

gress | karma 1557 | avg karma 0.91 · | 2013-11-24 04:29:48+00:00

Do you not have a reason?

mwfunk | karma 5525 | avg karma 3.84 · | 2014-03-15 18:46:59+00:00

Those are excuses, not reasons.

You’re confusing reason as in technical requirement with reason as in why they chose to do something. They can choose to do something without it being a requirement.

And you’re changing your comments after they’ve been replied to - please don’t do that.

So, are those reasons daft?

ltbarcly3 | karma 4105 | avg karma 4.68 · | 2022-12-05 12:20:01

These are just reasons, not good reasons.

alan_cx | karma 6033 | avg karma 3.47 · | 2012-03-21 12:25:37+00:00

Does there need to be another reason?

jjahdhnmko | karma | avg karma · | 2023-08-02 05:19:51

You really can't think of a reason? Or you don't want to think of a reason?

icebraining | karma 48925 | avg karma 2.14 · | 2014-04-03 13:39:23

Your mistake is assuming there needs to be a justification.

kylebenzle | karma 594 | avg karma 0.61 · | 2023-11-07 12:45:21

Exactly, the reasons given are simply not logical.

luxcem | karma 173 | avg karma 1.84 · | 2019-09-18 10:37:31

I think you're confusing explanation and excuse.

lallysingh | karma 9521 | avg karma 2.37 · | 2020-01-17 14:18:16

What are the right reasons for these things, then?

duxup | karma 38842 | avg karma 3.68 · | 2018-07-30 04:42:19+00:00

I think you're trying to use the wrong reason to address a different issue.

Timon3 | karma 2216 | avg karma 1.85 · | 2023-06-10 07:07:18

I will gladly tell you my reasons, but first I'd like to know something: why are you telling me that my decision makes no sense at the same time as asking for my reasons? How do you know it whether it makes sense without knowing why I do it?

This approach to conversation doesn't make me hopeful you will honestly think about my reasons, since you already decided they don't make sense.

> Thats extremely principled and selfless.

Thank you, that's very nice to say! :)

Do we really need a reason why?

ldlework | karma 156 | avg karma 4.0 · | 2020-04-26 16:40:30

In my opinion, you probably don't have good reasons.
