And about that "elitist" generalization, if you you want un-elitist, go and type "Tiki" into Google, and you can find countless blogs that will eagerly share their opinion about what they see as Tiki.

Tiki Central is still the one place where people with passion and years of experience in the field share their findings and opinions, raise questions, and (try to) start intelligent discussions about the art form. I feel a responsibility to those valuable contributors and their work, and if something as pedestrian as this subject here gets the same attention as, let's say the Kono Luanii Room post, I see an adjustment of focus is in order. There is a big difference between being "elitist" and sharing and educated opinion. And it is the great freedom of an internet forum that that educated opinion can be shared in a more subjective, humorous manner than being purely didactic and politically over-sensitive.
