Are you saying if we only understood the cost-benefit factors and incentives that shaped music genre _X_ we'd only need on genre of music and all successors would seem out of place? Bzzzt!

What's out of place late at night in a dark smoky club? It depends. Be in the moment. Adapt! It's the static, dogmatic mindset that is based on the over-application of a fictional timeless comprehension (which can't possibly fit in a tiny human mind) which results in strawman questions like: "Are you saying if we only understood the cost-benefit factors and incentives that shaped music genre _X_ we'd only need on genre of music and all successors would seem out of place?"
