Ha! Can't wait to read. It's such a pesky concept, but I also get it from an editor/marketer's perspective and have (and likely will) fall prey to it on occasion while biting my tongue and rolling my eyes. But hey, BEST 'sells,' dammit! In your case, you DO know best about Italy!
Meanwhile, just clicked over to my email only to receive an email about NY Mag's BEST OF 2024. I can't believe I glazed over this being the time of year for the dreaded BEST LISTS. D'oh. So much to cover about it the concept. I guess 'favorite' is just not as sexy a word.
SO good! I have been working on a piece about exactly this idea, given the name of my newsletter 😉

I’m so happy that Dick Van Dyck is still with us!
Same! Such a treasure.
