They added a bunch of stuff if you look though it! "Leica culture"

"Leica products enjoy a cult status: on one hand they are highly refined designs
that are fabricated with unequaled mechanical and optical precision. On the
other hand, they have an extraordinary aura that can evoke feelings and
emotions.  And it is precisely this unique combination of that warm aura and
bold, perfect technology that created the Leica mystique. A person who reaches
for a Leica is not just opting for a particular camera, but also for an
exquisite new internal attitude that will affect this person’s way of taking
pictures, it will even determine it."

from the site.
