Not rocket science, but not scientific either. :)

how complicated is it? you take a bunch of lenses, say 10, and shoot a few thousand shots on a film body. rate the lenses based on your personal definition of image quality on a excellent, good, acceptable, and not acceptable scale. take the same 10 lenses and shoot a few thousand on digital. rate the lenses on the same scale. some of the lenses in the excellent and good ratings when used on film will slide down a rating. like this is rocket science.

This is not entirely true, but I'm exhausted in debating the issue. Film and digital sensors are completely different things, optically speaking, and their different characteristics makes such statements overly simplistic.
