Pardon me for my ignorance then.

Maybe you don't look for those things but others do. Does that make them ignorant?
No , it just means they listen to music for different reasons than you do.
I like art as a whole , not just music. When I listen to music I want expressionism , not nicely played chords that could be played by a robot , I want to understand the way it's presented as a whole , where things come from, ideals , art , individuality , uniquness and yes passion , feeling & emotion. Yes it takes talent to be a good musician , but it also takes talent to write good songs , to choose original subject matter , to present something different as a whole and to keep doing it over a period of time. Perhaps you should get off your 'muso union' high horse once in a while & look at the whole picture.
