Sometimes the old way is the old way for a reason. Data from the field beats a gut feeling every time. It's good you were open to seeing those logs instead of just sticking to your first idea. That kind of stuff is how real experience gets built.
Yeah I was on the same page thinking it was a waste. Seeing those logs was a real eye opener. @zara_sanchez is right, field data just shuts down the gut feeling argument fast.
