Luis,

Karen's suggestion that you "split the difference" referred to cost. It is 
not half way in terms of functionality. In fact, with the ZI option you lose 
no functionality whatsoever as you do with the option of the R3A (no 28 or 
35 mm framelines & shorter base length). If you weren't looking for a 
cheaper solution, why consider the R3A at all?

I thought that Karen's proposal was rather an elegant solution: i.e. don't 
go so far in cutting costs & thereby lose features; only go half as far in 
cutting costs & lose no features. I have no idea what this has to do with 
"political correctness."

Cheers,
Bill
