No, it was just a matter-of-fact response to Marcs' question.

No. 1x2s would suffice.

Yes, you did miss my point completely. Part of painting the backboard is all about perceived value to the customer. They see a shiny new panel attached to a shiny new backboard. As someone is fond of saying "It's more about the sizzle than the steak" (or something to that effect.)

I'm sorry it just looks very tacky! Cosmo Kramer said, '' you dont sell the steak, you sell the sizzle''

Right, exactly.

As for it being tacky, that's purely a matter of opinion, one that I doubt is shared by many besides yourself.

Some might say that romex is subject to physical damage, especially the lower portion going down for a condensate pump receptacle.
