Given that it goes that way, would it matter if the art swapped but the certificate stayed the same?
NFT's can never contain "art" they can contain a hash and proof you own the private key. That makes them a great vessel for holding wealth but a poor one for holding art. If you want to buy art then you buy what you like if you want to store wealth you buy whatever the market tells you!

As an artist, who creates original physical artworks, I don't see any value in NFTs. I think recent media coverage of plummeting "digital art" NFT values, underscores that.
