Very interesting displays. The design of 19th Century 'heroic' arrangements of arms and such would be an interesting study in its own right. Because 20th and 21st century curating and collecting values have so many ideological components, it could be a useful marker of how power and ideology have changed.

For instance, I recommend the Bulawayo Museum of Natural History as a great example of 1960s (Space Age) museum design and curation, if you get a chance to go there!

Michael (Matchlock) described how modern German museum curators values were violently against arsenal and production arms, even those of the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries that interst so many of us yet can be so obscured by time. That means his collection and his teaching here in this forum are vitally important in preventing the erasure of this history for the whim of political correctness.
