I feel this overlaps with the "Politician's Syllogism" [0]:

    1. We must do something.
    2. This is something.
    3. Therefore, we must do this.

In other words, if we start by choosing an option without trying to determine what makes it best/good/appropriate, then failing to measure results seems like a continuation of the same carelessness.
