With all due respect, why can't you accept that some will strive for the absolute best parameters for a photograph.
Just playing around with a dof calculator that takes CoC into account (viewing distance & print size, something that the kind of guys like fred miranda probably do), setting a 20/20 eyesight, and you see that your settings will put the closest acceptable sharpness within the 2 meters range fairly easily. If you do a close to the ground picture, it's basically not working so well anymore. Specific case I agree but to each his own.
It's not lies we're dealing with here, it's different expectations than you and it's perfectly fine <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
