Rob, agreed.
The is also something to be said for the service provided by ordinary members of the public who we refer to as collectors. What I mean by this is the level of commitment undertaken by individuals to research, collect, find and finance artifacts which would, could or will be ravaged or lost to time. Collectively, there are way more individuals collectors who have the time and passion to pursue these things, while most museums have limited budgets, time and research staff. I support museums but also the individuals. One does not survive without the other.
