Why worry about it? Beyomd which as Mapman said the statement could have come from just one guy's thoughts that were published only as his experience at a show. I have not purchased my gear based on that kind of statement. If you see it repeatedly from different sources or a major magazine it would pique my interest, but I would need to hear myself if I could.
"Best of Show" Adverts
Is it appropriate for a person or dealer to advertise a [fill in model name] BEST IN SHOW when that specific model didn't win any best in show, but rather other models of the same brand may have achieved that accolade. This practice seems purposefully misleading. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't buy from a dealer or brand that uses such tactics.
