So true, it's human nature ! People "dig in", also, it's very difficult for some people to accept they've been duped, fooled, or, just made a mistake. The recent Covid pandemic for instance, just look at the actions of various groups of people. The number of people who have no idea of even the most basic golf course respect (like knowing WHERE to enter and leave a sand tarp, to take a golf cart around and BEHIND the green so as not to further delay the next group while you exit the green IN FRONT and hold up play, it goes on and on. Unless they make an introduction to the villages a mandatory thing (like muster on a cruise...LOL !), it will never improve. If made mandatory (would never happen of course) it would help "some", but human nature being what it is, never going to reach perfection.
