I thought there were plenty of aesthetics. Most of the fine arts were there: classical music as the score (and played on a FINE piano); baroque furniture; FINE clothes (put me in mind of Liberace), and all that printed literature. Fine food? Not so much.
As David noted, there were no social dimensions visible; just implied by the industrial goods (food and otherwise). But I think all that is to the creator's point (cowboy culture of individualism), so I don't think it needs modification.
