All manufacturers have different goals, some want to look sexy, some want tracking and more durable internals , some want better coating and glass,some just want a wide profit margin..They set their specs and then manufacture accordingly.You can't argue the quality of a scope simply by any one criteria.Sometimes if you cannot afford or are not willing to spend the extra for the more expensive whatever it is , then most likely you will not be able to percieve the difference in qualities.I have excercised this practice many times over the years . And conversely if you blow you money and buy something expensive , you will be able to come up with all kinds of support that purchase over the cheaper .Just human nature.
