But they’re confidently asserting a whole bunch of specific made up reasons this is shittier than a real Monet.

It’s like the sommeliers who can’t detect red vs. white wine when blindfolded.

People would come up with very specific made up reasons why they hate that plate of chicken as well, so I don't see your point.

As for your red vs. white wine comparison, it'd only make sense if one of those was doing its best to pretend to be the other one.

The point is the objections are bullshit. They can’t tell!

Then I guess you've completely missed my point.

If I hand you a lump of gold and tell you it's actually a piece of shit painted in gold, I'm sure you'll find reasons to hate it.

But if I make up reasons, that's bad!

"No thanks, I don't like shit" is fine.

"Oh yeah, I can definitely tell it's shit!" is not.
