For the first time in more than seven decades, drivers in Oregon are allowed to pump their own gas.

Pretty idiotic example. Can’t come up with something better?

    No, it's not, it fits perfectly with how simple the task is. The fact that you think it doesn't fit just furthers my point.

    Y'all are BOTH making invalid arguments. There are pros and cons to both methods. You have each grown accustomed to one way and the other way seems strange to each of you. It's not like one of you is wrong and one right.

    I grew up in Oregon but have pumped gas when traveling in other states. Getting out to pump your gas is a minor inconvenience. Waiting for an attendant to serve you is a minor inconvenience. Each of you is simply used to a different minor inconvenience.

    Chill.
