Counter-point: You certainly do, but mostly subconsciously.
People, especially "left-brained" types, massively underestimate how much aesthetics affect their psychological state. You are not a being of pure reason manipulating mathematical symbols in a pure abstract aether. You're a primate with a half-dozen crude senses that evolved mostly to make sure we didn't die from getting eaten by sabretooth tigers or eating spoiled fruit that only very recently monkey-patched that wetware into sort being able to reason about abstractions using a big messy pile of analogies and visualizations.
