Rocky's battle to the top "is a concept, it is an idea, and ideas don't need justification in terms of objects."

Gee. Professor, if concepts have no need to be manifested as objects, that kinda puts you out of a job, doesn't it? We'll all just think about a concept, such as "Liberty", "Flight", "Love", or "Motion", and melt down those extraneous chunks produced by Rodin, Brancussi, Calder and Bartholdi.
