Actually there are a number of contemporary camera lenses, and quite a
few classics that use 40.5 mm threaded filters. So it's not that big a
money maker, for them.

My K-mount Lomo Daguerrotype lens arrived. Beautifully packaged, it looks
magnificent in its little plastic bag with a sachet of dessicant. It weighs a
lot, too.
It is also ice cold and, being solid brass except for the glass bits, I'm going
to have to wait until it's up to room temperature.
Can you hear my drumming fingers?
Ooh, I want one of those! I'm very much looking forward to seeing some
shots from it.
As a side note, I see they've settled on a 40.5mm filter thread. Now
there's a way to make extra money: No one else is going to sell
filters for that lens!
