I've only seen the original Diana in the flesh, and

they have not cut
corners in their design, but rather have made those
decisions based on, 'how
can we do this best'.

Alexander's recent response seemed reasonable, as did
Sharma's initial
indignation. The whole incident smacks of misunderstanding,
lack of
communication, emotional overreaction, not wanting
to hurt another's
feelings, and maybe personality conflict. I'd suggest
we call it mutual
combat and drop the whole thing.

If I were interested in the Diana-2, I'd not let any
of these posts dissuade
me.

You have to be kidding. Whatever happened to 'the customer
is always right'. If these people want our money they
have to get real and realise that they have to earn
it. We are talking about the same people who made the
Puchaz after all, large credibility gap there I would
think.

all the best,
