I think you're being unfair. You forgot to mention the mislabeled, downloaded copies of the first movements of Beethoven's 5th and Mozart's 40th, the Blue Danube Waltz, the Ride of the Valkyries, a random excerpt from the Nutcracker suite (labeled "Nutcracker"), and the Lacrimosa from the Requiem Mass (labeled "Requiem").

Just listen to "Harmpit" and tell me that it doesn't make your bowels shake at least a little. I dare you.

I mean, I love Strauss, but the public just happened to pick the most bland one to latch onto.

I actually heard a nifty virtuoso transcription of the Blue Danube for two pianos that is much better than the actual waltz.

Brahms wanted to be the composer of that waltz too!
