You have a very critical eye. Many photographers, even professional photographers, don't have such sensitivity to quality. I could show my Leica pictures to two photographers and one could say there's no difference between Leica and Nikon, while another might see the light, so to speak. I haven't done exactly that but something akin to that. Many photographers only look at sharpness, and think the more contrast the better.
