Definition

You're justified in using a network tool if you can identify any possible benefit to its use, or anything you might possibly miss out on if you don't use it.

• The notion that identifying some benefit is sufficient to invest money, time, and attention
• Identifies any potential positive impact as justification for using a tool
• ignores the negatives that come along with the tools in question
• Network tools are not exceptional; they're tools, no different from a blacksmith's hammer or an artists's brush, used by skilled laborers to do their jobs better
