The belief that the progression of naval engineering will, over time, degrade the aesthetic appeal and qualities of the design of a ship.
The term references the Surveyor of the Royal Navy, Robert Seppings, who put forward radical changes in sailing ship design across the fleet improving their seaworthiness and general durability.

His philosophies were continued, eventually leading to the development of iron-hulled ships.
