       | Yes, and I often do that by asking a question like "Why don't you
       | just use [X]" i.e. Someone is saying something like
       | 
       | "Transferring files between these two servers is too hard. It
       | keeps timing out and then I have to look to see which files have
       | already been transferred and manually skip those. Sometimes a
       | file is present but incomplete and finding those is even more
       | work"
       | 
       | Why don't you just use rsync?
