Quote - "If a mechanic offered me a work around for a faulty transmission on a new car would that be acceptable? I think not..."

Imagine this situation:

Imagine that you really liked that car, it was the last one on the stand and it was very unlikely that you would get a new one, no matter how loud you'd cry, because the manufacturer would only fabricate a new model in an undetermined time in the future.

Would you accept the workaround or prefer not to have the car you loved and wait for the new model?

If, of course, you don't love the car, that's another story... Personally, I love my "car"... :-)
