they are chosen to make by manufacturers, researched, produced, etc, etc, can be debated for years. Some of us look at things in general with a more critical eye than others, and of course with collecting, we all have our preferences, expectations, and limits as to what we want, flaws we are willing to accept, and prices we are willing to pay.

Some manufacturers make unacceptable mistakes and flawed models, which often has nothing at all to do with price point. For issues of overall accuracy of shapes..... It really doesn't cost more to get it right.

And.... in answer to the question of..... "do we really see a flaw in a model when it is displayed?" Well.... Yes, some of us really do see the flaws when models are displayed.
