Call me weird, but it matters to me. A sound, proper weld actually looks good. Not too much filler, not too little, not too much heat, not too little, not too much penetration..... A good weld is art. It might be a minor obsession of mine. Those look like OK welds.

I tell the guys in the machine shop/manufacturing that I don't expect or want the assemblers to have to perform any secondary operations. They shouldn't have to.
