there's little to gain in any scope design debate because its very individualistic but i doubt 30 yrs of aggressive marketing by 2 great companies {thankful i live in a era where scopes of a certain aperture and sophistication can be engineered at a relatively affordable cost } could insidiously decieve the market, there has to be merit to the value of the SCT to justify the sales ,for a average Joe like me it fits the bill . Phil Harriginton does mention later in his fantastic book {hope his publishers can get the next edition out soon} that the quality standard by Celestron/Meade in there range of SCTs in recent years has impressed him .I
