On the contrary, it has been thought about extensively for many years and I think you do a lot of people a disservice if you think otherwise. I suggest you read some conservation documents - the Burra Charter and the UNESCO Convention for a start, and then English Heritage's guidance on the setting of heritage assets and Historic England's Historic Environment Note 2 and the recent draft for discussion, Note 3.

It's impossible to make conservation choices without employing mechanisms for assessing significance and that's what happens every day.
