Even more, I think it would cause suffering to the *artist*. And presumably
if the artist is reputable, he won't be so broke that he has to sell
inferior work to put bread on the table.

You raise an interesting topic. I submit that even a reputable artist
would eventually suffer from that mediocrity because the collectors
would stop buying after a time. Yes, I believe they would. The
general buying populace might not but they tend to be a fickle
mistress at the best of times.
