You can never be to picky, just as you can never be too rich or too thin <g>
Like you, I don't find the difference between a good K-mount and a good Super Tak to be that great. I seem to prefer some lenses of one type over some of the other - IOW, they both feel good. We all have our preferences and things that get to us more or less than the next person. You happened to be annoyed somewhat by the feel and the sound of some lenses. To those that have criticized you I say that they, too, have probably complained about some feature, function, or feel of one Pentax or another.
