Which raises the question --
have we collectively underappreciated the greatness of Kelly Clarkson or have we over-appreciated the Yoda-ness of Eliud Kipchoge?
One of the best questions I've seen on these boards in a while. Short answer, everyone has his/ her faults. Even Eliud. Deeper answer, there's elegance to simplicity, and much of what EK does is to keep his life simple - apparently, including music - and simple music with an easy mantra is all that's needed for the meditative power of music.
