To continue the analogy, each building plays its own music to the city, and the 'destroy art I don't like' here is akin to saying "no, don't play THAT genre to the entire city, only play THIS genre of music to the entire city"
Does liking THIS genre of music somehow make one more sophisticated when playing it to the entire city?

Explicitly held aesthetic appeal as a non-goal. From day one it has always been identified as "bold", "provocative", and "radical". These arguments for brutalism -- since day one -- are literally describing its lack of harmony in time and place.
