Why does every thread here devolve into a "Real" vs. "Replica" argument?

Dimis,
Have you ever met a champion? I mean a true, world class champion.
How about a captian of industry? No, not a rich guy but a real mover and shaker.
These aren't your average people. Most would probably call them A-holes.
As much of a "snake oil salesman" that he was, he was still a thousand times more of a doer than a talker. His, "get the F out of my way" and "nobody can take what's mine" attitude is what makes outliers champions, and champions outliers. Doen't mean he's the kindest or smartest guy in the room but he was the most capable.
We're all doing what we can, but he did what he had to do. It can be argued all day long and sure there's exceptions, but people like that don't necessarily make for easy going nice folk.
Do I love what he did? Absolutely.
Would I want to do business with him. Likely not.
Nice guys finish last.
