WELL THEN, are you are are you not saying that the format a lens is designed for ( film or sensor size ) does or does not affect affect the maximum lens performance possible of a given focal length? Its time to take a position and stick with it dude. your burning the candle at both ends at this point.... jco

It would look that way to you because you don't ever look at what people put in front of you. Had you actually looked at the resolution charts I pointed you to in that thread, you would realize that Pentax 6x7 lenses resolve quite a bit lower than the average for medium format. If you look at the better system resolutions, Hasselblad and Rollei come to mind, (in general, these are the systems the professional photographers use), you would find resolution numbers very close to often better than 35mm lens resolutions. I can't help it that you are obdurate to the point of being stupid, though I admit it does make me wonder how you keep breathing.
