The urge to break with a tradition is only appropriate when you're dealing with an outdated, troublesome tradition: i never really thought about that because i take the old-fashioned approach of equating tradition with value (which may be a failing). but whatever the case, positive tradition can also provoke opposition if it's too powerful, too overwhelming, too demanding. that would basically be about the human side of wanting to hold your own.
