And the not asked often enough corollary: just because there exists a technical solution to a problem, does that mean it's the right solution?

I often see objections to technical solutions because they have the gall to actually solve a problem, but do so in a way that the objector doesn't want. If a problem is seen as a way to force a particular solution someone wants for other reasons, alternative solutions are threats.
