Subsitute "Mainstream" for "Serious" and I'll agree.  There are some who
prefer to pick the right moment in the field rather than picking the right
moment from a screen full of thumbnails.  I don't think I'm any less serious
about my wildlife photography than the machine-gunners.

I agree, use the right tool.  The right tool for the subject, for the
intended market, and for the photographer's preferences, working style, and
idiosyncracies.
