That's probably the second most common problem. I'd say 80% of my job is just fighting confirmation bias. So if someone thinks something needs to be changed, they'll take any sign that it should be changed. If someone thinks something should stay the same way, they'd argue with god about it.

I probably propose changes more often than I propose keeping things the same way, if only because testing an idea and gathering information requires making a change somewhere. I have a lot of conversations with people who are pressuring me to make a conclusion that the current way is best as soon as possible, so they can throw a lot of money at their pet project.

I'd say that most of the claims I'm being asked to make with limited evidence would be supporting the status quo, which is in line with your assessment.
