Peacock words

WP:PEACOCK lays it out pretty clearly, and specifically mentions "famous" as a word to avoid.  But people seem to wish to use this word, in one particular place only, in this article.  The logic behind avoiding the word is very clear: it's subjective, and described what people might think about something rather than any objective fact about it.  What is "famous" to you is not "famous" to me, and vice versa.  So either we liberally add the word throughout every article, to describe anything that could be considered by anyone to be "famous", or we don't use it at all, unless it was used in a quote or other trivial exceptions.  It was decided a long, long time ago that the latter option would be better, and this was written down in the manual of style.

"musicologist Joseph Kerman called it" is objective, concise, and verifiable.  "musicologist Joseph Kerman famously called it" contains no additional information, only puffery.  Is there some reason why you think this one fact, in this one article, should be exempt from Wikipedia guidelines?  200.83.101.199
