I'd relate it to how color management fans feel about most proprietary
scanning and processing systems. Basicly, any product that says "we do it our
own secret way, and its better" causes considerable apprehension, since this
so often means, more limited, more expensive, less flexible, and less
reusable results, and only one vender you can deal with.
