Oh, but they can.  My photos submitted to stock agencies using the 
Canons have failed for "soft and lacking definition" and for 
"chromatic aberrations".  I've never had a Leica photo fail when 
submitted.  After the first few failed using the Canons, I was very 
particular to examine each one at 100% and could definitely see why 
they had failed.  It's possible that you couldn't see the difference 
in a 1/2 page published photo, but if the photos can't pass quality 
control, they are useless to me anyway!
