I disagree. When a real pro showcases an instrument, it brings out the hidden beauty not heard from an average player. I try to raise MY bar and get ideas from the professionals (including some great arrangement ideas). Dreaming is a good thing, IMO.
Listening to Baartmans and others of that caliber makes me practice more and more every day and I do try to change my act by having top talent ideas, not average ones.
