It's a great discussion, but very limited, in my opinion, to the conclusions
that can be drawn.  One of the issues I have with it is the 35mm equipment
used for these tests:

"The 35mm images here (both original field image and the image of the
30x39-inch print) were done on a Canon Elan with a Canon 28-105mm lens at
f/11 on Fujichrome Velvia film using the camera's autofocus. "
