Well I know it's a Leica list - having been on it for a number of years
- - but using the word "advocate" to describe someone who would take
umbrage at a Nikon mention is definitely using the wrong term...The
correct term does beginning with an "a," but I believe it ends in "e."

Who uses both Leicas and Nikons and considers both to be photographic
tools - not religious objects fit for deification. ;-)

Because it's a Leica list and sometimes Leica advocates are a bit
outspoken I was once berated for using an M4-P. (this was in Hawaii in
1989 with new M4-Ps still on shelves) I was being disrespectful to a
museum quality
