Can the WAF Kill an Audio System?

I have looked over a lot of system pics that members have posted and have read many comments about the Wife Approval Factor. Some systems look so clean it looks like the cleaning person just left. I am wondering if the WAF is at play here or if some folks just like a room than looks neat and tidy? A cleaning person could help with the dust factor in my room but could not help its looks -- with unsightly wiring, accessories and tweaks all over the place. Frankly, if my room were good looking my system would be DOA. The SQ of my system depends on this unsightly mess. A Wife Disapproval Factor (WDF) would kill my system. How about your system? Do you wish you had more freedom to do as you please or is everything just fine with your situation and your room?

To each his own madness, but I believe that if your system doesn't look good, it really won't sound good.  Of course, a room and system that looks like a hurricane just ran through it can actually sound amazing, but I would not want to sit and listen to music (organized sound) in a disorganized room.

How would you feel about boarding a commercial aircraft who's construction and maintenance appeared "untidy"?
