There's some logic.
After 50+ years of reloading, I don't fall head over heals for a name. Some people think that the name Creedmoor on their gun will kill their elk at 1,000 yards. I read thread on another forum comparing the 6.5 Creedmoor to the 300 Win Mag. Evidently some people think they're about the same.
The funny part is how some guys like yourself go out of your way to insist anything "Creedmoor" is all about a name, while ignoring the actual advantages that make them popular. That must be a way to make yourself feel better I guess if you can convince yourself that everyone else is dumber than you. That's not rational, it's emotional.
Judman and Mule Deer both pointed out some very real advantages; maybe those don't apply to you, but it doesn't take a lot of thought to realize they probably apply to a lot of other people.
