The reason I know, is that both Gable and Selznick thought he wasn't the right director basically because "too feminine" in his style and gave him everyday a hard time on every single choice he made. I thought Leigh had a little part too in that, I'm glad she didn't and that they remained friends

And I'm saying that she was considered a beauty by audiences and critics back in her day. That's simply a fact.

Yup. The globe is also flat and if you steer your ship too far off into the sea, you'll drop off the Earth.
