Which in the end means what? That sharpness is an illusion of wishful thinking? That tonal modulation is in our mind? In one sense yet, but in another sense, no. Both subjective and objective criterion go beyond that. Leica lenses do perform better than other lenses in many way. That's where the thread began, no? It's not enough to say that the best qualities of our pictures are in the mind. That's meaningless for photography's power of communication.
