PRECISELY!  At that cost, it should also wash the dishes.

I don't quite understand the thinking of "throw money around" for the
sake of throwing money around.  My ancient 100/2.8 and 200/4 lenses
are producing top-quality results with minimal inconvenience.  As I
tend to plan my shots ahead (form follow function?), I rarely miss a
shot thanks to the lack of IS or AF or the wrong focal-length.

Not that I wouldn't mind being able to throw some money around, but
it's awefully difficult to justify some of these purchases to the
CDFO.
