Truly, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and sometimes that can cause problems. Football is a wonderful game designed to be played on a grass field, under a clear sky on a crisp afternoon. Sometimes that's just not possible as night games under the lights are played when it's way to warm, or cold. Changing the color (and texture) of the grass is something advances in technology allows us to do. It doesn't require, however, that we do so.
There are those who just cannot resist changing things regardless of how well they are working, how well they perform, or how much others appreciate them.
