so i had this nicely thought out and clear answer for you and hit the wrong key and so lost every bit of it v....v


it is not about that though. you are assuming the person in question has the book and is looking at the paintings on the wall and has money in their pocket to buy the art, it has /nothing/ to do with that it was never part of it, the question is not 'is that picture better than the other picture right next to it?' but 'is the kid who is about to walk by going to look up at either picture?'

let me try and rebreak-down the question;

is it good to have more art?

does having more art make someone any more apt at understanding and appreciating art?


to answer this question you have to reverse the order, since to understand if it is better to have or not we need to understand if it is something that will be used. in fact i am going to make this a little easier by simplifying it and changing art to cars


does having a car mean you understand cars? no. i have a car, i don't know anything about cars i don't care about cars


will having more cars change your understanding of cars? no. if i got a second car i would still not know anything about cars and i still would not care about cars


so let's put it together, is it good to have many of a thing available? will having many of this available thing make you any more apt at understanding this thing?

no, and no

is it good to have many arts available? will having many arts available make you any more apt at understanding art?

no, and no
