We also have many traditions around general morality, consideration, respect, tolerance, and so forth.

To give no consideration to tradition is a terrible idea for society; it devalues the work and thought of those who came before us, and it leads to throwing out hundreds of babies with the bathwater.

We're in agreement on the fallacy of "it goes without saying...," but many people in society today show no consideration to history or tradition, and see no value in attempting to understand it enough to see its advantages.

In other words: this 100% can be a fallacy, but in modern society, we're currently in more danger of forgetting the value of history and tradition, than the danger of valuing it too much.
