@fjtorresIt does have something to say about what some people think will sell, but that is all. I agree with your statement.
"During his entire lifetime, Herman Melville's timeless classic, Moby Dick, sold only 3,715 copies." Which probably means a publisher would have made a business mistake in publishing it.
Publishing is a business. It is not the keeper of all that is good and proper in writing. It is a means to make profit by putting out what they think will sell.
