The argument is about which scanners are *adequate*.  A drum scanner
is still _best_ and I hear very few arguments with that, mostly
because it's pretty obvious how amazing a good drum scan is.  A drum
scan is still the only way to actually resolve the grain rather than
to just get an image of the film grain.
