JCO is right, so ...

[Larry Levy]

OK! JCO's premise makes sense, and it would have not cost Pentax any 
'significant' money to continue with the enabling of K & M lenses. They 
didn't do it. Now what?

I think one of his premises is falacious. He seems to be attributing logic 
to their choice of what to include. If recent past is prelude, we should not 
expect logical behavior from Pentax. Was it logical to pre-introduce a 
full-sized sensor seemingly based on the MZ-S before being absolutely sure 
that they would produce such a much-desired (at least within this list) 
DSLR? It certainly wasn't prudent.

Maybe we should treat Pentax like religion. (And to some of us, this might 
not be much of a stretch.) Then we wouldn't expect it to follow logical 
laws, and simply have faith.

Of course JCO is vainly trying to convince us of the validity of his logic 
by iteratively presenting the same material in a similar manner. I remember 
consistently performing the same activity while expecting different results 
as being a definition of something. Oh well, we all do that at times.
