Exactly. An example along those lines ... remember when Campbell marched into Bert's office blow the whistle on Don's change of identity, when we were all expecting big problems for Don? How classic was Bert's response, his delivery ... a pause, then the laconic, dismissive reply, "who cares?"

Plus the no shoes thing and the bow ties. Bert's an interesting character, but ultimately one-dimensional. That's probably why Smurf couldn't quite figure him out
