No because then if someone challenges your decision you can give them citations! And then you can carry out the decision without the risk of looking weird!

A worthy endeavour!

Are you being sarcastic here?

No. Information really is useful for influencing others independently of its use for actually making decisions. It is only the decision making component that is useless after you have already made up your mind.
