No, Bosco, you aren't missing anything. IMO, this is just the "SF doesn't really matter to us" syndrome at work. For those of you who doubt me, try this experiment.
If there's a B Dalton's in your area, go to it. Walk in the door, go as straight as you can to the rear of the store, and hang aright. You'll be in the SF/Fantasy section. Where no one has to see it unless they *want* to see it. (I've tested this theory in six states, from California to Virginia, and found only two exceptions.)
