I agree. To me, low water pressure would be too big of a quality of life
issue to ignore. I would be upset every morning in the shower until it was
fixed. And because of that, I'd be willing to spend quite a bit of money to
fix it. He probably didn't put much importance on high water pressure
himself, so he would consider the fix to be cost-prohibitive, whereas to you
or me it might be worth every penny.
