a good chunk of my posts are to /c/anything or /c/whatever; cross-post them if you think they'd be better elsewhere!
then it comes down to the principles, then--let's set aside objective superiority. if most people like the older looks, should they be made to live and work around buildings that they find unpleasant? (and it really is an active dislike--I look at your last example and on an instinctive level feel that cantilevered (?) projection is threatening me, like it can choose to crush me if I walk under it) or is it problematic that this leads to Kincadeification? then again, is that different than architects' being constrained by the current expectation of what a contemporary building should look like?
Hey, if you're getting death threats in PMs please reach out directly to admins. That is not something we tolerate. I am not sure what options like IP bans exist or will exist. We don't want anybody to be harassed.
