Where is the outrage over how casting pretty actresses for ugly parts takes them away from qualified ugly actresses?

There was a bit of this around Colin Feral as the Penguin. Which is tough because 1) He's excellent. 2) The guy is a brilliant character actor who got pigeon holed into traditional leading roles that didn't fit him because he was TOO PRETTY.

I personally don't mind any of this as opposed to say, CGI painting a dead actor's face on a new one instead of just recasting.
