As someone who was that friend at one point when I was much younger I never got the fuss about it. Rented a house in a neighborhood that was none too happy about it and constantly got snide or passive aggressive remarks about it from neighbors both in passing and at several points them coming to my door about it demanding I get rid of them up until I moved out a few years later. Never understood it. Being older now and owning my own house, there's a house on the same street as mine with kids getting up to similar hijinks and it's honestly nice to see them getting into hands on hobbies. I stop by and chat with them about their ongoing projects every now and then. Crushing someone's passion hobby because of some perceived slight to neighborhood beauty just seems mean spirited.
