I know willravel headed you into "religious" as a way to talk about this, but I don't think this sentiment I quoted here helps your cause. I assert that for most Americans (certainly this one), "435" isn't holy, it's just unconsidered. I'm not attached to it, it's just the number it's "always" been, and I've never thought about changing it. Changing it isn't sacrilege, it's just not something that's been on the table before. In other words, don't accuse me of being unreasonable when I am merely ignorant.
