It highlighted how images can seem to have amazing filigree details, but in fact were nothing more than processing artefacts.

One of the aspects of the CWAS Malin awards I totally respected was DM's vast knowledge of what objects should look like (due their physical make-up) as opposed to some "interpretation" based on a whim at best.

The latter was rarely viewed favourably. I never had a problem with that.
