When you know the battery is dead, why do you press harder on the remote control?

When you know the battery is dead, pressing harder on the remote control doesn't change anything; it is not going to make it work any better. It is typically a behavior people engage in out of frustration since the remote control is no longer responding. This behavior is similar to jumping up and down or pressing other buttons on the remote control, neither of which will make the dead remote control any more responsive.
