Of course they do Naglers are like old pipes you've been sucking on for 30 years - irreplaceable. I think some people also stand by an eyepiece when it costs 3x the amount of one of potentially equal quality. Many respected reviewers on CN suspect the ES 100 and Ethos designs are one and the same and that the ES are a direct rip-off. Certainly most reviews I looked at o/s struggled to split them.
If you've already got an Ethos sure you'll go back to it, no one is saying they are better than Ethos, not me anyway as I've never had the pleasure of an Ethos but if you are trying to decide on ES 100 and Ethos there are a plethora of comparisons that suggest that the ES 100 is up to it's eyeballs in the fight and costs half the price.
