> Plenty of companies have successful products with hardware that you consider beneath you.
That's a crazy emotional statement and a completely wrong interpretation of what was written!
I'm saying these are features that are so cutting edge they can't even be packaged in mainstream hardware... and you transformed that into me calling them "beneath me" because you're rationally interpreting what I write? Or emotionally responding without comprehending. The latter no?
I’m not being emotional. That phrase was chosen because, as I’ve posted already, my opinion of your comments is that the differentiator here is nott technology but rather your preferences in technology. You then go on to argue your preferences as being better than other peoples (by proxy due to dismissing other peoples preferences as “not ready”). Hence why I considered your opinion to be one of elitism rather than a pragmatic evaluation.
But since you’ve degraded this conversation into a pointless meta-debate about whether I’m getting emotional or not (I’m clearly not but would it really matter if I were?), shall we just agree to disagree and get on with our lives? It’s pretty obvious no constructive discussion is going to come from our discourse.
> You then go on to argue your preferences as being better than other peoples
Show one example of this. A single place where I say or remotely imply anything about either strategy is better than anything.
In fact, show one place where I show a preference. You're literally imagining my preferences. After all, I've owned some of these devices... I've owned the first 4k phone (an Xperia), I've owned interesting low volume hardware like lightfield tablets and cameras.

I am saying that brand new tech that literally cannot be scaled, like can't even be manufactured in mainstream numbers, is released by some manufacturers, but not by others.
Like it's not even an opinion, it's a statement of fact which is why it's mind-blowing that it's gone this far in back and forth, and again, makes me look for meta reasons why this is even an argument...

> I’m clearly not but would it really matter if I were?
I guess I was being charitable in assuming the reason why you:
- missed so many plainly stated points
- keep using really combative retorts like "you think your preferences are better than others'"
- keep putting words I never said or implied in my mouth
Was emotion... but it might just be malice? So yes, I enthusiastically agree to disagree.
