I agree. It's sort of like when Luddites say all bikes are basically the same and you might as well go to Walmart. Obviously, not all bikes are the same and there are huge differences felt by anybody given the chance to compare. Like bikes, I'm sure psychology becomes a big thing when comparing two very similar tasting wines or bikes where the difference in quality is minimal.
