No, it’s not the only important thing. The complaints about it should tell you that.

People care about provenance a lot.

Whether it’s a drawing my daughter did of her mother, a Picasso napkin sketch, a worn 1960s Stratocaster, or an blog essay, the provenance is value on top of the correctness of the item.

Yep, I used an example where the provenance value was obviously large to make it very clear.
