I was actually pretty relieved when I realized I couldn't tell (or was indifferent to) the difference between good coffee and merely average coffee. Another hobby I didn't need to spend any more of my limited time/effort. It's like when I tried on some audiophile headphones and discovered that they sounded the same as my $20 cheap ones. Saved myself months of "research" and hundreds of dollars, and marketing/ads bounce right off me.

Yea, I think delta matters more than just being objectively better. Going from those crappy iPhone default headphones to even a cheap pair of Sony earbuds made a huge difference. Going to the next level, our expectations say it should be a similar jump, which doesn't come, and we feel let down. The hype doesn't match.
