There’s a podcast called Jobsolete that covers, as the name implies, obsolete jobs! It’s inactive now but they have an ok size catalog that it’s worth going back and listening.

Yeah, at least for the dwarves that I imagine they’re not just about efficiency and quality but they really want things to look interesting and intricate. (Not that brutalism can’t be interesting but it is not finely detailed/intricate like dwarf work.)
