I wish I could find a higher resolution image of this graph of optical results.

Its a classic example of reviewers/companies abusing peoples lack of knowledge about spot diagrams or optical designs to further their own causes.
If you would like to see what a large Newt can do with a 3" Phillip Keller Corrector on a Newt ( seeing and all other issues aside ) have a look at these spot diagrams of a 400mm F3.5 with 3" corrector to the edge of a 45mm diameter circle.
The square box is 20 micron in diameter . As these spots are just larger than the airy disc at that F ratio I think it is valid to look at spot diagrams, but seeing will of course bloat the discs larger .
