Alright already, can we ban SAWII from documentary soundtracks?

I saw the "Weather Underground" film tonight while it was an interesting story, it was a mediocre film. I think part of my feeling about its mediocrity is that it is yet another documentary film that uses Select Ambient Works Part II on the soundtrack. This is third documentary that I've seen in the last six months that used it and it just smacks of laziness. Can we officially ban it from documentary soundtracks?

It was used prominently in "Devil's Playground" as well, the documentary about amish kids going wild.

i do believe they used NWW "lilith" on some C4 (or might've been C5 as it were quite pony) docu on ra ra rasputin lover of the russian queen. aphex saw2 god it's such an iconic cipher of "creepy music" cliches and a stalwart choice for the lazy music supervisor on any tv production. i tried listening to it a short while after that recent thread on it and despite disc 1 track2 it pretty much sucks ass
