I hate to even add another post to the flame-war, but I would like
to make a few points.
Lets examine this post - you are stating that I
am correct and logical in this premise but that's just a religion of
mine I am asking people to follow "vainly" and PENTAX is illogical
so **I am insane*** because I don't expect illogical
behavior from PENTAX? I think you need medical
help if you are serious. And I am dead serious.
- Most people who read and fully understand your comments agree with you
that it probably doesn't cost much more to include the coupling and the
lack of it represents a shift of support policy. That is somewhat
disturbing.
- Most people who have not read and/or rully understood your comments OR
have expressed the opinion that the currect situation is good enough seem
to have elicited individual and somewhat caustic clarifications of your
position. The inclusion of arguably excessive SHOUTING contributes to the
hostile interpretation, whether it be for emphasis or not.
- I would venture to say that your argument assumes that the decisions
were rational and based on some underlying reasoning. Perhaps they are,
but they certainly are not based on engineering and feature-enhancing
reasoning. Once marketing gets ahold of the system, the engineers have
lost.
