I really hate the argument that changing X doesn't solve problem N, therefore it's a waste to do X. Grrr. Just because something doesn't solve the world's problems doesn't mean it doesn't need to be done.
Of course, usually, the real reason behind the argument is they object to the change. A change others recognize is a change that should happen.
Treating someone with respect doesn't solve all their problems. But I should still treat people with respect. (And I mean an equality sort of respect, not a some people above others sort of respect.) And some changes people, companies, governments, and such, choose to make because they realize making those changes is necessary for treating everyone with respect.
