I don't mind the contextualism of KPMB's project, though it's not quite historicism, more of a modern take on the original design to my eyes. I might be describing a bit of a fine line here, but I'm referring to additions that merely attempt to mimic the original structure and result in a cheap Disney-esque recreation.
It's true that quasi-historicism can be very undesirable for neither being rooted in the past in a convincing way nor doing something contemporary and trying to forge new ground.
