    Exactly.

    Same reason I sometimes eat boxed mac&cheese or go to a mcdonalds instead of a real burger place. Sometimes the thing is it’s own thing instead of what it’s imitating.

    I can’t make a mcdonalds hamburger at home. I can’t get the ingredients and bread:sauce:meat:cheese ratio right. My burgers are good, I’d even say better, but they aren’t the same and sometimes I’ll crave the mcdonalds version.

    Honestly, I hate these arguments. “To each his own,” “Don’t yuck my yum,” etc. Sometimes I want to do things I know are imperfect and you, internet stranger, have no ability or prerogative to tell me what I can do or like.
