As usual, well put Chuck. Auction prices have nothing to do with cost/benefit ratios, value or anything like that. Cache, mojo, esteem, whatever you want to call it. A Toyota Supra might be a better car, but its never gonna be a Ferrari. As they say in the Harley Davidson world, if you hafta ask, you just won't get it...
