Frame is fine and nice ... I'm very much into the linseed oil poo brown finish (honestly) and I like that its a fun parts bin special. But also think thats and odd decision for a show bike.
However. Drop grips + Berthoud saddle (at least its not a Tan brooks) + esoteric 2x7 Shimagnolo (why) with rip off XD2 and a 50t big ring (why) + #Zertz bottle cages + aneamic tyre width + top of top tube cable routing (+ bb RD cable routing) + etc etc etc...

re Starfish Allroad - you guys are hard on this one. Maybe the pics don't do it justice ; looks nicer IRL. Linseed paint, brass touches and the hand-painted logo give it that very handmade/quirky look.
Not for everyone I guess, but I like, ; I think of it as a Crust with nordic/artisanal vibes.
