Subject: [Leica] Optical Question

Okay, all you Optigods, a question for you:

If a + diopter is a magnifier, wouldn't a +1.25 diopter do the same thing
that the new $229 Leica M 1.25 Viefinder magnifier does - for $73, without
protruding from the back of the camera, and without the really cute little
chain and carrying case?

I am, of course, being a bit facetious - but the question is absolutely
serious. If they aren't the same thing, what is different about them in
terms of function?

Thanks

B. D.
