Second, prior to making Voigtlander cameras and lens, which while relatively inexpensive compared to Leica gears, the VC branded stuff is much more expensive (and higher quality) than the Cosina made cameras and lens. I bet people said the same thing then - how can a OEM camera/lens manufacturer like Cosina come out with boutique RF cameras and lens and be successful?
