Perhaps they were compensating for something?

LOL! That was funny. But I do agree with everyone. The Dwarves love beauty. They would, of course, apply that love to everything they own. Such magnificence as Moria is awe inspiring, and just shows how much the Dwarves really loved their work, and their home. You don't buy the ugliest house on the block, you try and buy the best house on the block. Or, instead of buy, make. I thought it was fitting that they would do such a thing, and the Glittering Caves are no exception either.
