I'm going to be that guy and point out that clover wasn't considered a weed until a chemical that killed clover, but not grass, was developed by Dow Chemical and the company wanted to sell it as a weed killer, so they ran a campaign about it.

The secret was to turn clover from a friend into an enemy. Pesticide companies decided to launch an intensive advertising campaign to convince homeowners that white clover was a weed that needed to be destroyed. They spent literally millions on advertising to persuade unconvinced gardeners.

That’s great but, I independently came to the conclusion that clover looks horrible on a nice lawn.

Probably not independently. You no doubt got the idea from TV, movies, etc which are basically pushing the same propaganda. You think you're above such things, when in reality you're a victim of it.

Propaganda can turn black to white and white to black. And it propagates down the generations better than genetic damage. And we just call it "facts" or something.
