It's like when Shimano say that 105 feels exactly the same as Ultegra- they're implying that it is basically just as good apart from a bit of weight. And yet everyone buys Ultegra if they can afford it. Weight still matters (or the badge)
I think it's an interesting talking point.
I agree with this :-)
