This "garden" is an absolute abomination, regardless of whether they paid 1 million for it or 100 million for it.
I agree with you to a point, but if you're going to build something crappy you might as well not pay huge money for it.

As an analogy, Bouwmeester might not be the league's best defenseman, but he'd get a lot less crap on CP if he cost 2-3 million less.

Edited to add: Bouwmeester is pretty much CPs version of Godwin's law, so I figured, what the heck.
