I dont find it sexy.
It does have a very strong feel of action that a realistc treatment wouldn't.
Your argument ad absurdum is obvious troll, all things in art are about finding the right balance.
Still, it brings up the question of how far is too far.
As a consumer I care zero about accuracy.
If something gives me a feel, thats what is good art. If somebody's butt is in the wrong place, it can detract from the piece - but only because it draws attention from the things in the piece make it a good piece. Errors that add perceptual energy to the focus of the piece ARE NOT ERRORS. At least in the context of the individual piece. If it has to dovetail into a larger theme - like concept art - they may still functionally be errors.
About the loopy-ness, if it distracts from the feel, yeah its bad - but in the right context it can get quite absurd. Cartoons are an obvious example. I enjoy illustrations of Mr Fantastic.
Basically in any case where visual hyperbole is called for.
