Probably best not to listen then.

I got involved in a discussion on another forum once, it was on what was art and what wasn't, it raged on for a week or more, and at the end it felt like many of the contributors were being labelled as ill educated boors that should know better than to offer any opinion that differed from those more knowledgeable.
I disagree that there Must be some whose opinions mean more or have more value than others, unless it's a value or preference that I have placed for myself. (Speaking for myself)
Why would any one person's opinion have more or less merit otherwise,
I don't understand why or how you think personal preference shouldn't come into it.
Even in regards to the old grand masters of painting, there were vastly varying opinions on their work, with their supporters and detractors.
We get to make our own minds up, we don't have to wait for someone to tell us that something is worthy or not, and that is not kowtowing.
My Sig on one of the UK forums is
I know what I like, if not always why.
It's still true.

Many of the options available in pp now, originated in the film days, and if you think that some of those iconic film era shots were untouched, you probably need to look again.
I hope this thread doesn't end up as a debate around, as shot, images.
When is too much pp too much, ?
Is a very subjective question, and is all down to the individual to decide, what's too much for one, may not be half enough for someone else.
Remember our eyes can adjust so quick and our brains fill in so much, that scenes that we can See with our eyes. May need copious pp to realise in a photo.
For me,
Do as much or as little as you want, but ultimately the viewer gets to make up their own mind when viewing.
Free choice and all that 👍
