I wonder why my comment is getting downvoted though. :/

Don't be surprised if your comment about down-voting also gets down-voted. It's against the HN site guidelines.

As for the the cause of the down-votes, it's most likely the snarky part, "Really, British Museum?!" It was unnecessary to make your case.

On the bright side, the links were interesting and appreciated. Thanks.

In the risk of getting downvoted again, I must say this fierce rally to blindly remove any "non-neutral" way of expression from the web (and the whole world) is plain stupid.
