Of showing and/or instructing me in the supression/control of this optical effect (other than continually buying different lenses) . That fuzzyology has a "quantitative measurement" in this art other than "I think it bad in this lens". That the shape of blobs have any aesthetic weight in the evaluation of the merits of a photograph. Sorry I dared to breech the subject with my "viable" doubts and "feebleminded" ideas.
