Management, would not, in fact, love that. They tell Kylo so expressly, ten minutes later, after Kylo has filled out a form in triplicate and ranted for a good five minutes about the importance of aesthetic value. After the all, this is a very fancy country club with a dress code for practically every other area – you’d think they’d be concerned about the aesthetics of their pool area, too.
