$499 for a P&S with a 1/2.3" sensor? Why?

People who have only sat at their computer looking at others' photos will
never understand why. So don't bother asking for an answer you will never
be able to comprehend.

High speed video, for a start. *Really* high speed.
10 fps stills, for another.
Auto-panoramas, for another.

But - I'm not being supercilious, cynical or dismissive, so I doubt my post
will be considered.

For you perhaps. (You can't conceive of a valid use for high speed video?)
There are other opinions, and they are equally valid.

I don't like and don't watch "reality" TV shows. That doesn't mean they
MUST NOT be broadcast.
Does it?
