I don't think you can be that specific, you have not taken in to account the other reasons for having it

1. Convenience, if IO carried the same but in prime eyepieces I would have 8 in the car

2. When out I always carry my ed 72mm in the car with Quark, thie eyepiece allows simple and fast access to Ha when out and when visiting nature reserves, the convenience of a birding scope
