Of course it is a big advantage. It's one of the reasons I've owned
Elecraft rigs since I first became aware of them and currently have two
K2s and a K1-4. I'd own a K3 if I didn't find the K2 perfectly
satisfactory for my casual operating interests.
I stand by what I said. Comparisons between Elecraft and other amateur
manufacturers are unfair, apples to oranges, in large part because of
the personal interaction of Eric and Wayne with those of us who enjoy
their products. In 60 years on the air I've had the chance to own or
operate most of what has been offered. Except for my Drake 2B, my K1 is
still my personal favorite, and the K2 close behind.

A big advantage of owning an Elecraft radio is that you CAN
communicate directly with the Owners and Chief Engineer, they will
listen to what you have to say, and often modify/upgrade their
products based on what they hear from US! Try that with ICOM. Or
Yaesu. Or Kenwood.

The fact that you are having this conversation directly with one of
the owners/designers of Elecraft and not one of the owners of ICOM is
always going to make comparisons inherently unfair.
