title: Argument from inertia
text: Argument from inertia or appeal to inertia is a logical fallacy derived from the proposition that a mistaken status quo be maintained for its own sake, usually because making a change would require admission of fault in the mistake or because correcting the mistake would require extraordinary effort and resources. Its name derives from inertia, a concept in physics representing the resistance of any physical object to any change in its velocity.
