Agree, Nathan, but it is probably increasingly difficult for Leica to
remain content with their niche market status. The pressure from
the public stockholders is what has changed in the equation.

The precept: Judge not, that ye be not judged... is an
abdication of moral responsibility. It is a moral blank
check one gives to others in exchange for a moral blank
check one expects for oneself. The moral principle to adopt
is: Judge, and be prepared to be judged.
