Objectively, Deerfoot Trail has more vehicular traffic than Stoney Trail. Objectively, Calgary has more people than Edmonton. Objectively, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Objectively, a lake is better than no lake.
Hmm... one of these statements is not like the others.
Because no matter how much I love or hate the city of Edmonton it's still going to have less people than Calgary; no matter how much I personally love or hate the sun, it's still going to rise in the east and set in the west.
But what if I hate the fact that a lake becomes a mosquito breeding ground every year? What if I have a fear of drowning? What if I prefer a big strip club in the middle of my community instead of a lake? I then am going to argue that no lake is better than having a lake, and my reasons are just as valid as those who have moved to said community because they like the lake.
