Death of a Typeface
I think the same thing when I see graffiti. People risk being arrested, or even their lives, spray-painting their names in odd places. But if they're so artistic about it that nobody knows what it says, what's the point?

The "point" of art for art's sake rarely involves communicating the name in the signature; even if the signature is part of the work.
