I don't know, I find many reviews do a pretty dark good job of describing the nature of the piece equipment, for the most part I have found reviewers do pretty good job of describing the basic attributes - given that we all know the importance of ...

Seems like it was neither personal or an oversight if you take JA's word for it, and why wouldn't you?
