> So is there a "real" backpacking answer to my query? 

Yep. The answer is that not everybody packs like you do, hikes like you 
hike, hikes where you hike, or likes the same kinds of gear. Variety is a 
way to catch as much of the market as possible.

Or have I just answered my question?  The masses become the ma$$e$.
