Once again, that's not "nuevo". That's simply bad dancing (and
unfortunately, dancing that appears to be danced to an imaginary
fat nubian beating drums for a slave galley rather than the real
music and its phrases is not confined to nuevo).

It's a false dichotomy. You can't cluster tango dancers into
two distinct classes and then simply assign lots of properties
("good" on one side and "bad" on the other) exclusively to
the two classes you've just labelled. Badness and goodness
in tango dancing is much too multidimensional for that (you've
got people that are bad in many aspects and good in others, with
lots of possible combinations), and denying that is dangerous
if you want to avoid discussing a mere caricature of reality.
