- gist 8y agoBy the way this 'spartan is good' and 'frugal is good' theme has been making the rounds for a long long time (obviously pre internet). It always impresses writers. It is so wholesome to them and the audience. Opulence is derided as wasteful and de facto bad. It's like the story of the guy out in the wilderness who makes do w/o power tools. Somehow people eat that type of thing up. Salt of the earth and so on.
