That may not apply in every case, it's true.

 Is a list of the the "right" reasons really important?

My notion of the "appreciating as art" is following William's nested types of
discourse -- for the philosophy, theory, and criticism of art.

But it's only part of the ordinary practice of art appreciation - especially as the docent is sharing her enthusiasm for something... and the receptive audience is trying to share that enthusiasm as well as learn the proper
reasons for it.

Doesn't everyone want to actually enjoy the right things -- as well as know
the right reasons?

It improves self image and social status -- as one who is both sensitive and well educated - so art appreciation is also a kind of socialization.
