I axed* a question in the thread above that wasn't answered, so hoping
to get a response here.
Since the crux of this whole discussion is a difference of a whole *one
third of a stop*, my question was, and is, isn't this too
inconsequential to even merit discussion, since we're talking about
black & white negative materials here? Seems to me that a third of a
stop difference, no matter what direction, is basically lost in the
noise, and certainly more than adequately covered by the latitude of
film. No?
* That's how my homies talk. Sorry.

I hope that in a few years it [Wikipedia] will be so bloated that it
will simply disintegrate, because I can't stand the thought that this
thing might someday actually be used as a serious reference source.
Because in its current form, it's not to be taken seriously at all.
