For the life of me I can't figure out what point your trying to make. These things are new so we should ban them? Some people will say these are good even though they're new?

"In the grander scheme" interstate highways and air travel and scuba diving are new too, what about them?

Only that they are all quite new, but are frequently defended as if they are integral components of the country since time immemorial.

As you say, on balance some of them are good/should be preserved, and some should be reconsidered.
