дурной тон ("Many Hong Kong fortunes are hard to explain, and it is considered bad manners to ask questions about their origins." (The Economist) – считается дурным тоном • I make these objections with some reservation. I work at a school of architecture, and complaining about something "new," "interesting," creative" and "unprecedented" may not sit well with my colleagues and our students, who largely favour these qualities. But in my opinion, disruptive architecture likely to ruin the future potential of the broader site, with no compensatory value other than to celebrate its own overweening dominance, is simply bad manners.
