I agree that Mozart is one of the classical artists that poseurs will mention to make it seem as if they know classical, along with the likes of Beethoven and, I don't know, maybe Tchaikovsky? But I think we all know Occult enough to believe he is not choosing Wolfgang to be cool. He's obviously a Mozart fan, and that's ok in my book.

What's so adventurous about it?

Perhaps the better comparison might be 10 directors?

I agree. Why choose 10 artists you might end up hating and be stuck with? I'm Trollheart, pleased to meet you: my chosen ten artists could easily sustain me till I was rescued, or a stray nuke hit the island. Is that the SS Frownland out there I see?

We're all taking a **** of a chance that we're gonna like those artists in all those decades. Might as well take a chance on some **** we aren't familiar with. Otherwise you might well find yourself in twenty years with albums you can't stand cause you weren't willing to admit to yourself that maybe, just maybe, you wouldn't feel about Converge the same way you felt when you were 20.
Hi, I'm Trollheart: pleased to meet you.

At least you could use Kerry King's solos to shake the coconuts down from the trees.
