    Fair point.

    My counter is: I don’t think you necessarily do. A historian might have some insight on this.

    I find false hope to be more damaging than not hoping but still trying.

    And as to the why: because there are logical reasons to do so. It’s the right thing. I think we might get into religious understanding here, which is a fascinating thing, you see.

      And what are the logical reasons to do so? Maybe an that the changes you want would leads to a better future? One could call that hope.
