Merton called this ritualism, a deep devotion to the rules because they are the rules.

称这种仪式主义为对规则深切奉献，因为它们就是规则。

As we saw with bureaucratic ritualism and alienation, rational systems are often unreasonable, impersonal.

正如我们在官僚主义仪式主义和异化中看到那样，理统往往是不合理、没有人情味。

And that focus on rules leads to another kind of inefficiency: bureaucratic ritualism.

对规则关注导致另一种低效率：官僚主义。
