While I don't disagree with this general notion:
I do believe this is 100% true:
It's a wildly difficult thing to do (not under or over-hitting it), and something that is difficult to appreciate without having (or least having tried to have) done it.... Just as a really long bounce pass in basketball or hitting on to the green with beautiful backspin.
No, I don't think your average rube can appreciate it, but you could say that about many things in many sports.
