I find these threads to be interested get but also partially pointless......

Someone puts up a proposition about "One Scope To Rule Them All" then applies a list of conditions and limitations.

The fact is everyone will have different perspectives, preferences and constraints for their choice of what their "One Scope To Rule Them All" will be.

Based on the them but ignoring the constraints it would be my TOA150 as an alrounder as it's portable, a good imager, great visually, has no need for mirrors to be recoated

I would have said my Mewlon 300 but the main drawbacks are it's less portable, while I have seen very good Mewlon 300 images they are not ideal for that purpose and as it ages Mirrors need recoating. But its main advantage is excellent visual performance across all targets in a permanent observatory.
