Now and then I think he fall prey to the marketing/groupthink/misconception that "It must be art, why else would we appreciate it". It's the same fault that has us ascribing "Character" to old British cars so that we don't have them hauled off and crushed in to coffee table cubes or something else more useful and less frustrating.
Of course there is also the chance that you are right. We should all go give Bill another $10 to counteract them just in case.
Ahhh, it is a conspiracy to get more money for the station. Kinda like holding us hostage, I will give you back your RP if you send more money than they are! Hmmmm.....
