Nobody is coercing anybody to buy anything. A bank loan requires full disclosure to protect the consumer. Same with real estate deals. But a Leica list? Buyer beware is still a rule that prevails. To base one's decision to purchase based on opinions from an internet list is the height of foolhardiness. Now if there is no purchase involved, why are disclosres necessary to validate whether the list members should agree with one lister's opinion or not? Full disclosure to state an opinion? Isn't that the absolute inanity? Some people have this uncontrollable urge to fire off their long list credentials before coming up with an opinion, as if it matters one whiff, when in fact the importance of what they have to say exists only in their own minds.
