I think that would be a really stupid marketing move by Pentax.
Especially the part about instructions bring in Inuit. From Northeast

Pentax marketing department FAIL - again!
the ice-loving peoples of the world are one of Pentax's largest
markets, Frank. I'm surprised you don't know that. Just last year alone
sales reached nearly double figures, and there's rumoured to be a
special edition coming out that smells of herring.
