Is This Sad?

So a few minutes ago I spilled coffee on the white carpet. Tragic, I know. So I went downstairs, got some Arm & Hammer cleaner for carpets and whatnot, and brought it back. I've never used it before, so I followed the direction of spray, let the foam settle, and then wipe it up. So I did that, and it took about five minutes.

And now, the stains are completely gone. And I was surprised. How sad is it that I'm shocked when a product does exactly what it is described as doing? What does that say about marketing?
