BEAUTIFUL > BEST

Not the best, but the most beautiful?

In life, there are certainly things which are the ‘best’. But … what is most beautiful is often not the ‘best’. Thus, perhaps best to optimize for beauty … instead of optimizing for the ‘best‘?

For example when it comes to certain design things and design objects, certain objects or designs are more *beautiful*, but less functional. Typically that which is maximally functional is the best.

But, perhaps better to get thing which are sub-best, but the apex in beauty?
