Their outfit has no bearing on their banking skills, yet it will have a profound effect on how they are judged and who does business with them. The content (their skills as a banker) will not matter without a decent container (their outfit and how they present themselves). Some containers simply affect different people to differing degrees. The formats that are used by YTMNDs are a container that turn some people away before they can ever see the content. You may disagree with their opinion in that matter, but that doesn't make them silly.
Yeah it does. What if the casually/slovenly dressed banker runs a better outfit? (No pun intended X_x) People who judge everything on appearances ARE silly and deserve to lose out. Whether it's done or not has no bearing on whether it's sensible or not.
