Overheard a foreman say broom finish is for amateurs, walked off the job

I was on a patio pour in Phoenix last Tuesday and this foreman from another crew starts running his mouth about how broom finish is lazy work. Said real finishers only do exposed aggregate or stamped. I’ve been doing broom for 12 years and it holds up way better in the heat here. You guys think broom finish is actually looked down on or was this guy just blowing smoke?

My buddy Mike got roasted for doing a swirl finish on a driveway in Mesa last week.
