Why so obsessed with bass?

Such a obsession to deal with bass issues.  Why is this?  
On a sub if there is too much rumbling simply turn it down.  
As far as mains these probably are not much of an issue for most of us.  However for bookshelves speakers it makes sense they really aren’t well designed for lower range frequencies.

I have heard that having a 2" thick piece of granite or bluestone cut to the size of your downward-firing subwoofer's footprint and then sitting the sub on top of it will improve bass, the idea being that there is more and denser mass to the stone than the wood floor underneath, with the added benefit that it will keep the entire house from becoming a transducer.

Does anybody have any thoughts about this? I am considering it.
