Okay, there's an Abe Lincoln painting(Lee), and another Abe Lincoln painting with a slight blemish(Pujols). The untarnished painting hangs in my attic while the other is in the White House. Which is more valuable? The untainted painting. If I were to just see the two without any context of their location, I'd pick the unblemished one every time. If both were in the same location, I'd pick the unblemished one. The unblemished painting can't do anything more to it's surroundings than the beauty it provides, and it shouldn't be punished for things out of its control. Likewise, the tainted painting shouldn't be elevated because of things outside its control.
