I guess cause Television were a band who were there first, and in 1974 that's important. There were basically a weirdo garage rock band tbh and didn't much sound like a punk band but they had their moments and had a "**** YOU" quality to their approach that was pure punk. If Richard Hell had never been a member then maybe they'd have always just been an art rock band, but Richard Hell was punk before punk was punk, bitch. Indisputably Richard Hell was the second punk. Iggy was the first. Duh.
