I just don't see, "the general public will not care" and "this thing is [insert value judgment here]" as incompatible thoughts. The Toyota RAV4 is going to be the best-selling car in the United States in 2026. I personally think it is substantially worse than many of the vehicles it's competing against. If you disagree, fair enough! That's the whole point! But I don't think, "well it's popular so actually it's good" is much of a counter argument.
