Not really, most DSLR's today are based on Film SLR bodies. It doesn't take much to tell the
Digital part of the camera that it should be prepared to capture an image. It even makes sense
to protect the digital sensor with a shutter curtain. Especially if the camera has interchangeable
lenses. I have seen no compelling reason to design a DSLR from the ground up except for cost.

Neither is a DSLR. While it may "ape" a SLR it was/is designed to be digital, not shoot film.

To grasp the true meaning of socialism, imagine a world where everything is designed by
the post office, even the sleaze.
