No, I think the opposite is true. The fact that the exterior design matters to the public, to the overall cityscape, and to civic pride, is exactly why the city should be involved and public money is justifiable.
The Saddledome is/was an iconic part of the city. I hope/expect the new building will be too. Having the city involved (hopefully) aids that process/expectation.
