Since when has riding a vintage bike been all about the cost/benefit ratio? Or been any at all about the cost/benefit ratio?

We ride a vintage repainted-blue, decal-less tandem with French derailleurs and original Mafac canti brakes because it's the coolest tandem in the state! Or at least in our eyes it is. The rest of my bikes are where they are and in the rideable condition they are because I like them.
