I thought your OP was fine. You were clear that you were evaluating only your perception of optical quality vs other scopes folks might be familiar with. You even summed up with this:
I’ll close by saying I think a lot of what we like in lowlight scopes has a great deal to do with our eyesight. This scope is a really good optical fit for me.
Then in a later reply said this:
As far as glass is concerned, you can dial your Nightforce all night long and not see what I will with better glass and capped turrets. I don’t see why that’s such a hard concept/insulting reality for some. A foggy swamp bottom at last light requires the best glass I can find.
Which totally flies in the face of the first quote.
