Change is hard, but necessary.

I would agree change is hard. And I believe change is inevitable. But is all of it really necessary?
We are self-aware beings that can evaluate what technology has done and is going to do to individuals and society at large. Metrics for attention span, reading comprehension, social connection, and many more things are trending in damgerous directions already. Some change is not necessary and is objectively doing more harm than good.
