It's true that I bought into the myth, but it's also because I don't care; as not-a-photographer, this seems to do a great job of taking pictures of my baby & dogs, at a resolution at least as good as the screen I look at them on. Anything else is gravy.

Fair enough. I think the main takeaway is that photographic gear is now so dirt cheap that branding and really high end gear only matters to the pros, everybody else could just use their phone. That won't stop a whole bunch of them from buying stuff they don't need, but that's fine, it brings the price down for the professionals.
