Good Grief, JC, you sound disappointed in these ... wow

They look beautiful and I bet the photos don't do justice to the color. They are rocks, after all, and rocks sometimes have fractures.

Didn't somebody's grampa once say, just because horses occasionally go poop in the street, doesn't mean we should stop using horses?

I think they give a certain amount of depth. Great load of rock and whoa...are you patient or WHAT?
