Yeah, I got that feeling too. Not to mention this isn't about only graphics vs. hardware needed to run it, but the workforce hours spent doing so; and the return from sales.
Besides, it totally sidelines the discussion about the artistic value of different kinds of graphics and the freedom developers have on those. That's a reason every painter isn't Bouguereau. All this orgasm coming from "but look at how cool does this look" makes me think of 19th century poets obsessed with alexandrines and meaninglessly discussing how to attain the perfection of form.
