I'm agreeing with you here on this. I don't understand ludicrous wheels, let alone the people who buy a $2000 car and spend $4000 on wheels...
I try to buy the cheapest, lightest wheel I can that I know doesn't have quality issues and recommend others do the same. Spend the good money on parts that actually mater.

If he really lives in Holland I think it's Holland, MI or Holland, OH because I've raced against him before (didn't know it until this forum though). If you've never been in MI or OH than you don't know what bad roads are
The paint/powdercoating of a wheel I don't consider damage to a wheel. When I think of damage I think of curbing, bending, cracking, etc. Oneday may have that same impression.
Agree on the rest.
