That all sounds like opinion to me. When I look at the examples of what I'm supposed to think looks awful, I just see a house. The one with so much overwhelming "secondary mass" looks nice to me.
If you need to study architecture to "realize" how bad those look, maybe they actually don't look bad. All the people buying them seem to agree.
There are legitimate problems with the construction quality, as others have pointed out, but trying to claim they objectively look bad is clearly wrong.

And others I could certainly see what they were talking about aesthetically, but many of them came with concrete benefits - all those "voids" in the second story of that one I'm sure let in a lot of beautiful light and scenery for the people actually using the house.
