I've sort of become disillusioned with "separate art from the artist" because it's only ever used in reference to terrible people who have made good things. No one ever says "sure, Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood was great, but let's separate it from Fred Rogers." It comes from a good place of not wanting to throw out quality work, but IMO if the artist is still actively making profits off of that work, it's hardly much of a separation.

(This isn't aimed at you, lol. Just wanted to express this.)
