Go right ahead, your prerogative.

Environmental sealing in a compact camera? The target is to get better image quality than a typical compact, not make a mini-dslr. Image quality is exactly what this camera is about and why people...

It's not a dslr, therefore put it in context. It's much better than a 'standard' compact but it is ever going to be as good as a dslr, therefore pointless reviewing the lens in massive detail.

It's unique in terms of image quality and zoom range at a very pocketable size. Hence a very good rating, pretty obvious really..

Try wearing spectacles.
