You seem to have no shortage of words.  It sounds like you don't need a 
monochrome sensor, which is perfectly fine.  I'd say 99.9% (or more) of 
people are better served by a Bayer sensor.  But there are those out 
there who would benefit from a monochrome sensor and they know who they 
are.

If you are really interested in seeing some pictures (I can't tell from 
the patronizing bullshit you wrote above), take a look at any 
photography which requires narrow band spectral response.  Like, say the 
Hubble.

It's been hashed out several times on this list that a monochrome sensor 
gains you some sensitivity, higher resolution, and freedom from color 
moire.  The higher resolution thing can be important particularly when 
you are using narrow band filters.
