I agree with you, in that I see no harm in hearing it, even if you feel that its unhelpful in the long run. However, we can't expect everyone to be on the same page as us. I know alot of artists who get really personally damaged when they get tough critique, unless they mentally prepare themselves for receiving it, and it kills their motivation. I don't get it, but there are other things in my life that I am that way with.
