Perhaps his 'ego' is wrapped up in it remaining a collection. It isn't
unusual for somebody to spend a lifetime putting together what they
consider 'the ultimate collecton' and despairing at the idea of it being
split apart into fragments, undoing the thing the collector worked long
and hard to accomplish. It isn't unusual for collectors of various
things to want to bestow them, complete, to an institution that will
keep it together as a collection.
