i loathe boucle and can't get behind it so i will be happy to see it go (if it does). Im over plastic things and non-real materials (polyester etc) . give me real wood, real leather and real cotton and linen and wool. I want there to be a story behind my furniture - eg it was made by hand and not press board in a giant factory by a machine. craftsmanship will hopefully make a comeback

I never saw the appeal of boucle. But I hope more customers start demanding the things you listed from manufacturers so that they have to fall in line or go away...then "real" furniture (and other products) will start becoming less niche and more mainstream, and prices will drop.
As for dupes, I wish sometimes that I could find the "original" designer of a product, but so many companies offer the exact same light fixture (for example) under different names and different price points that it's impossible to discern who made it first.
