I think there is often too much scrutiny against people who make such purchasing decisions. What I personally do not get is people purchasing such pieces of fine machinery without having any significant appreciation for what they are buying, and buying just because it is trendy, "cool", or something like that.

Appreciate your understanding, dude. It's refreshing not getting flamed or having to 'prove' that I 'need' it to buy it
The last bit of what you said I totally hate and it's sadly these "all gear no idea" folks who go around talking $hit about a product that's actually of quality just 'cos they can't use it properly or don't know what it's about. The number of people (on some other forum, not so much this, happily) complaining their tis off about race pads being loud and dusty is a case in point.
