> People also tend to be familiar with certain technologies and will discount the flaws of existing technology vs. the flaws of new technology.
Is that really a problem? It's only natural to get accustomed to old problems caused by old tech (where workarounds probably already exist or limitations understood and accepted) while it makes sense to hold new tech to a higher standard since it has the benefit of learning from past mistakes and should avoid introducing obvious problems for people in the future to deal with. Our future selves will thank us for being more critical of flawed new tech than we are of old tech.
