I believe three reasons (at least):
1. Some people don't really love music (as much as they even think they might).
2. It does take a while to gain a critical ear.
3....and most important...I have many people who work for me in a demanding capacity with which some very talented people float to the top ("the cream") in many an attribute. Perhaps coincidence, but after some years of intimate dinner parties (I'm NOT rich by the way!) or holiday parties, ironically I find that the ones who are very talented also appreciate my system much more than others. (Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're not kiss asses either..)
So pat yourselves on the back! You are the chosen ones! (yes I jest, but I have in fact observed this phenomenon...)
