If you can span the same space with fewer tools, that is good. If you need >1 lens to cover all subjects, so be it. It sounds like it is a problem of fit, not something independent of the problem space. No need to discuss the benefits of SLR's, that is just stretching the analogy.

Unless somehow there was a compensating factor in the lenses.

My 2 bits.  Metaphor isn't quite right, but perhaps you see my point.

Where's my post-mature optimization?
