Magicians get emotional about it': should secrets of magic ever be revealed?
Briefly

Gustav Kuhn and Brian Rappert's research indicates that revealing the secrets to alive magicians' tricks is generally considered unacceptable in the magic community.
Kuhn stated that the acceptance of revealing magic secrets is highly influenced by whether financial transactions are involved, highlighting the complexity of exposure ethics.
