Well T-dawg, in my experience, there are too many people who presume to speak for everyone "less eloquent" because they find some parallel to their worldview. It might be right, but it's still a generalization to claim that non-architects were universal in their opposition to modernism. There's too much evidence to the contrary, and plenty of trad architects who never changed their work.

However, you can't make an appeal to popularity without considering other implications. If you want to defend homebuyers for their style choices while condemning their land use choices, you need to justify why they were right in one case and not the other.
