gollark: Probably perception of coolness is partly grounded in social status (or something like that) of the thing, and harder to obtain (e.g. expensive) things have more of that.
gollark: Modded clients don't actually let you read the *messages*, so I'm sure they're technically able to make it work sensibly.
gollark: I personally think that if Discord do not want people seeing things, they shouldn't be sent to clients.
gollark: Can't modded clients also see the description?
gollark: I see.
