Probably Jason Rourke, who actually builds them these days. And I tend to agree - 853 seems to be very special. Not sure whether the wide range of tubes offered by Reynolds is what makes it special or whether Reynolds offer it in a wide choice of tube guages because it's special, but having several choices of tube diameter and wall thickness at each position certainly makes it highly adaptable.
