I think the miners are just a case-in-point of everyday heroes that go into mines and risk their lives and health to do good work. I'm all for celebrating them, though perhaps not to the level of giving them celebrity lives. Them turning into media icons and millionaires in the end would send the wrong message and compromise their status as standing for everyday heroes anyway.
