Nikon might well benefit from loaning some production samples to allbinos and, in addition, to other respected bin reviewers who visit this forum.

I agree with most of your comments, so your guess was wrong.....
Regarding the flat field, Nikon had to come up with something that none of the competitors at the price level of MHG has and that will appeal to many people. Nikon SE and EDG have flat fileds with no RB artifact, and IMO their optics are excellent and leave very little to be desired. The flat-field optics of the MHG may be expected to be similar.
Regarding the MHG and EDG, the EDG line has not been a great success for Nikon. As some have suggested it seems that Nikon has given up competing in the high-end binos market. My hope (and speculation) is that the MHG will be an alpha level binos line that's offered at a much more reasonable price. If Nikon will sell many more MHGs than EDGs, the MHG line will be more profitable.
