You talk like that hasn't already happened.

Overall, the museum doesn't really have a choice. They're getting a very reasonable proposal that has a feel-good story with it, and if they refuse it they'll look like a-holes. In the museum and heritage field in general, we're in a time where it's not merely ethical but necessary for institutions to work with the people they are representing.
