I love the Donald Kingsbury quote that saifedean (npub1gdu…6nak) referenced in his Fiat Architecture episode on his Bitcoin Standard Podcast:

"Tradition is a set of solutions for which we have forgotten the problems. Throw away the solution and you get the problem back. Sometimes the problem has mutated or disappeared. Often it is still there as strong as it ever was."

Often, society becomes so boastful and egotistical about the advancements of modern society that we forget modern civilization is just a more technologically advanced iteration of what came before.

Traditions are just us humans remembering the good things we came up with in the past. It is the strong foundation for human civilization, just as classical architecture is a strong foundation to make a long standing and beautiful building.
