Never been in the "we" category here, it's just so obvious that ruins of any kind and even just old-ish (like within 200 years) buildings rarely look like they were supposed to. It's disturbing and sad that most people can't seem to realise that by themselves.
When kids were shown the white marble buildings in ancient Rome on TV and history books and whatnot, and then end up thinking that's how it was, instead of with colourful paint - if that is disturbing to you, you must have been a rather recent arrival on earth, no?
