Let's pretend for a minute that beauty isn't inherently subjective. Is beauty and visual harmony always a desired property?

- boomlinde 12y ago> Why just pretend? Do you mean to say that there is any substantial evidence to the contrary? If so, you should elaborate. > No. But bad technical execution is usually an undesired property, no matter what tone I want to set with a certain typeface. OK. Please let me know what exact technique is being executed badly and how. Just dropping "bad technical execution" out of nowhere without substantiating or explaining the claim in any way isn't a valid argument.
- fennecfoxen 12y agoWhen it comes to the process of getting information into someone's brain through the use of written language, yes, it's generally quite desirable not to make the brain work too hard to process the writing, or to otherwise distract it. (There are of course a few special-purpose exceptional cases.)
