“ Here is another attempt to support the form follows failure thesis: If the idea of “dissatisfaction with existing artifacts” is not limited to failure of some kind, there is clearly no basis for disagreement. But in the evolution of artifacts, preferences and prejudices are powerful forces, as are innumerable other forces. Most of Thomas Jefferson’s inventions, for example, were the result of special needs that had nothing to do with failure.”
