I’ve had non-technical users, who used the application daily, ask me to implement a large form where every input was a radio button.

When I suggested using a more appropriate mix of drop-downs, checkboxes and radio buttons they readily accepted.

It turns out they thought radio buttons would be easier for me to implement. They aren’t stupid people, they just don’t have any idea of how things work outside their domain.
