This is a stab, but the original script is licensed to the scientific end of business (microscopes, thin section slicing machines, etc). Somehow this may restrict its use in specific markets?

Hi Lucien,

       It's interesting that these limited edition MP 6-s have a much
more extheticly agreeable LEICA script than the regular MPs.  The
MP 6-s do not but the LEICA in the center, where it appears unbalanced
and plain.  The script is very similar to the M3s, etc., that include country
of production, below, etc.  Why does Leica 'hold out' on these
tradition for only 'special' cameras?   I guess if they can get more
money for the script, they figure, why not?

Cheers,
