Interesting post.
While I am definitely not a fan of tetrapods or tetrapod-lined coasts, I appreciate and condone any viewpoint that reveals the beauty of the world, or that makes the world a more beautiful place.
Another point made in your post is that to the eyes of an adult, things may look unpleasant. But to an innocent child, much that appears bad or wrong or ugly to a jaded adult is in fact beautiful.
Thanks for posting,
