Groovy, man. Peace and Love.
No, I don't think you're pretentious at all. Or alone. (I am not a
town/building person myself, so my opinion may not count for much)
I think you build primarily for the esthetic value of the building - which is
great. I look at your work and expect to be wowed by the buildings, not the
people artfully arranged around them. So people are superfluous.
What scale you build on is entirely up to you and the needs of your project.
Which frees you from the tyranny of being constrained to build to suit
minifigs. Dig?
