Kia ora e Harold

I have a number of issues with this metaphor for preparedness for change (or rate of change?)

One is the assumption that the same linear scale can be used for measuring progress in a range of clearly different disciplines.

Another is in the way the it is interpreted. In accepting the metaphor, it could well be argued that when businesses are about to hit the wall, their speed is not an asset. There is no time to reflect on the situation, nor steer clear of inevitable disaster.

My feeling is that an Occam's Razor approach to finding a metaphor is poor at best and at worst, smacks of political rhetoric.
