Yes, it does, but every kind of art, or practice (say in sports) also
deserves to be judged on some level as to how well it does what it
strives to do. Putting aside bias (I mean I know I like certain kinds
more than others), still it must be possible to figure out whether or
not this one is a good version & that one not so good (hey, this rapper
is great, that one sucks?).
Not to patronize (& if this is an example of such I apologize), but to
recognize.
