Yes, Doug - You use Leica reflexes and their feature set is ideal for
your work - which is what is important. But the vast majority of the
world's professional photographers who use reflexes do not use
Leicas...even though many could if they choose to - they use Nikons and
Canons. Nikons and Canon's are both "Leica like" in that they are
inarguably high quality photographic tools that make it possible for
photographers to produce world class images. And what is more important
than that? 
In term of rangefinders, of course, it is an entirely different story,
because there are no "Nikons" or "Canon's" in the rangefinder world -
there are only Leicas. ;-)

debatable... they use film and can be used to make pictures ... in this
respect yes they are like Leicas.
