Each person has their own view of what a holiday entails. Personally I wear formal clothing at least part of the day 7 days a week at home (for work, various meetings etc).

It is a pleasure for me to be able to dress down when on holiday. To wear smart clothing for breakfast would not allow me to relax out of my everyday routine enough, a key feature of a holiday for me. I do smarten up for dinner personally, but I understand why others may not want to. I do feel when a lady dresses up and a gentleman wears a casual t-shirt & shorts it is showing disrespect to her, but again that is my view.

However, I believe I can’t consider my way of viewing the world is the best/right way. That would be a blinkered way to view things.

No, your spot on, our view should be compulsory!
