Yes, this is essential to not forget. Aside from the part about people scratching their heads, mostly the masses don't get things simply because they're not too bright. Relying on their taste is just the opposite side of the same coin, their judgement is also contemporary but also a whole lot more arbitary and groupthink-based. Just that they're blind to the artistic merits of a past era doesn't justify using their indifference to all artistic merit as an artistic merit itself.
