I agree for the most part. Since CNC machining became easy to contract out, manufacturers have decided that 19mm thick slabs of aluminum machined into funny shapes with added LEDs and maybe some wood is the thing to do these days. IMO a good chunk of it flies past attractive and lands straight into gaudy/new money/"please, please look at me and acknowledge how much I spent on this stuff" territory.
And low grade aluminum is plentiful and cheap. Modern machinery can do away with nearly all visible imperfections in the polish/finish phase.I agree for the most part.
