Think of how much DOF
wide-angle those 15 and 25mm lenses have. How much precision is in those
bodies?
<<<<<<
Some pros use Nikon FM10s when they need a light weight body and I have
never heard of any problems related to the alignment between the lens mount
and film plane. BTW at the same F stop a wide angle lense needs *more* not
less presision in this restpect. The depth of focus ('depth of field' inside
the camera) is proportional to the F stop times the focal length. This does
not hold for retro focus WA or telephoto long lenses.
