One of the most disingenuous ways modernists, politicians and planners have to hamstring ordinary people wanting to live in beautiful places rather than ugly is that they demand "a definition of what constitutes beauty", as if this lack of metaphysical clarity requires the ugly. pic.twitter.com/z6ILnBd9RQ

That, and ideas about what is beautiful is about 60-80% hardwired in people most likely. Quants, who have taken over too much, declare anything without an exact mathematical definition not real and you a fool for wanting it or believing it.
Meanwhile, beauty is what it is. But in the end of course it’s all about power.
