Doesn't this work for every point then?

> Programmers should speak up against managers who want to upsell fries, but they don't care.

Managers who tend to upsell fries are not exactly the kind of people who are going to accept the message.

Broadly speaking yes.

The goals of managers (and business in general) are profit maximization, and of course upselling exists exactly for that. And if a manager decided that we need to add another upselling screen then it's more or less futile to disagree from the position of a subordinate employee. The decision has been thought of and made.
