I knew someone would call me on the 'no one.' It's the same problem as arguing about whether the Print tab at DxO means anything.
* I confess I have a 1999 web page of lpmm tables for several Pentax lenses bookmarked.

The problem is we can measure resolution, then we can quantitatively rank lenses, all in a quest to identify the absolute winner. It's all so scientific and western.
Those of us who consider a lens' rendering and speak in code about pixies are expressing qualitative factors that we understand but tables and charts and short, bloggy reviews on websites can't explain. The only way to understand is to see the images - but, despite all the images in Flickr ( we humans took a trillion images in 2015 I read) - no one looks at an image when deciding on a lens.
