This reminds me how László Mérő, a Hungarian mathematician (and a lot other things) called certain theorems a "kitsch" if they stand alone, if they do not advance mathematics in any way. He used the well known four color graph theorem as a perhaps surprising one: you could take existing methods (discharging) and apply brute force and be done.
