So are you telling us that you prefer to pay MORE tax than necessary?
There's a huge difference between tax avoidance versus tax minimization.
If you're wealthy enough due to actually having grown business' (rather than just pure inheritance) then likely you have a team of accountants and taxation experts. These folks would find and use legal means to reduce taxation. Personally my goal is to always minimize, legally, how much tax I have to pay. Most people would agree and figure that's fairly obvious and smart. That said I'm always amazed at friends and co-workers who don't even consider tax reduction strategies.
