I wouldn't be surprised if the Lindy effect only works, if you assume it won't going forward. In other words, If no one says those software suck, they'll continue to be used!

I think Lindy does not depend on being conscientious about it. What has value/serves purpose survives, what doesn't doesn't. Of course it could be the case that finding spurious meaning in data does have a purpose e.g. spiritual one. Just not truth.
