The wrong assumption is that you have to pick the best of all possible everything the first time. People agonize less about choosing a type of car to spend $30,000 on knowing that if you sell it used its instantly worth 5000 less.

Meanwhile you can switch everything about your computer in 2 hours for free.

Instant depreciation of a new car is worth it with the knowledge of newness with warranty. Buying used is a huge gamble. But yeah, I mostly agree that we need to encourage people like how I was encouraged: oh yeah just try it out!
