Why does everyone either hate or love John Hall of Rickenbacker?

I mean it seems like some people assume that anybody who has heard of John Hall of Rickenbacker have an opinion of him in a general sense. Is it so hard to believe that maybe some days we love him, maybe some days we hate him, maybe some days we are neutral? Thoughts?
 
I probably couldn't pick the dude out of a lineup, but I do wish there were more threads about him:

I wonder if he knows about all the hoopla over here.

Why do people post questions like this in Basses when it clearly belongs in Misc.?
Own - not just play - a few Ric basses & you should be able to answer your own question.

What if he owns them and never plays them?

I have a ric. 2 different bands with sound needs on the opposite end of the spectrum. Both like the ric the best out of my 4 bases. So it's more versatile than people think. My 5th, a Sadowsky, hasn't gotten played with the band yet. As far as hall, don't have an opinion.
