You shouldn't make arguments for things to not get better

That is what you are saying when you reject solutions to the problem.

I'm not doing either of those things. I'm pointing out that things staying the same is preferable to them getting worse. Of course positive change is also better than stagnation. Those are both true. It's a pretty simple scale IMO, progress > stagnation > regress. I don't see where the misunderstanding is coming from; do you think I wouldn't prefer progress?
