Interesting indeed.

Especially since Japanese reliability (over here) seems to be slipping.

Long-term durability is harder to assess; by the time people relise it, it's ceased to be important.

But yes, you are right; the only real advantage the Teir 2s have is PQ and if THAT starts filtering down, they are in trouble like the Teir 3s!
