You understood the reference, and so did everyone else, so does it really matter if he says "on the wall" instead of "on a pedestal"?

Also, you have misquoted (?) the article. When quoted like that, it sounds like the author is criticizing Daft Punk, when in fact the author is addressing potential detractors.

It's just funny to me because it shows the author's lack of understanding of the Duchamp piece or why it was interesting at all.
