And why shouldn't the lowest common denominator be catered to? Since the printing press was invented, people have been selling books to the lowest common denominator.
But this isn't the lowest common denominator, that would be considerably lower. No one is taking away Jane Austen in the original. This is a tempest in a teaspoon.
