Is option B a bomb? Is it drugs?

Ahh my loving sister
Explosive drugs? Drugs that are to be exploded?
It’s not stupid if it works.
That’s one of these reddit phrases i’ll never understand. Things can work and be very stupid.
This is something tradesmen have said for a very long time. I think the original meaning has been lost online.
“It’s not stupid if it works” is basically a tacit admission that something stupid is happening, we all agree that it’s stupid, and we also kind of all know that there is a better way, but for some reason we’re not doing that.
Usually it feels like the stupid thing we’re about to do is the best option available to us.
As a trademan, an addition: it’s usally used in a situation that needed a quick fix, and only needs to hold together for a short period. Usally this the short period gets extended because “it’s still working”.
Nothing is as permanent as a temporary fix.

Maybe more like this: „If it works as intended, an unconventional approach is justified.“
Not at all. “The purpose of a system is what is does” is a phrase that makes it clear that in a system where a lot of people work in, “purpose” is a useless concept and should never be used to tell if it’s a good or a bad system.
It’s an entirely political view of a system, and has no relation to the implementation being stupid or not.
It’s not that the first one is completely impossible, but we’re not quite there yet technologically. And even if we could build the first one, the second one would probably be less than a 1000th of the price to make.
Even if it’s not completely impossible, it would be completely useless. What would be the point of rotary chain guns on a drone? Assuming the thing had enough lifting capacity to carry the barrels, there isn’t enough space in that thing to carry enough ammo to fire for more than a second.
Would you rather have 1 of option A or 1000 of option B?
Kind of depends on what your specific goals are, but 1000 to 1 odds tend to tilt things in option B’s favor.
WTF is option 1 even supposed to be? Looks like a device producing extremely much engine noise to me.
