Steve, Yes, it would appear you are missing something. That your comparison is a "so what". Why should Leica's expenses have a thing to do with anything? That's like someone wanting a raise because they have higher expenses than someone else. People should get raises/charge more because they earned it, not because of circumstances that they NEED more money for.
