Equipment is the least important factor in the equation. We (I) like
to think that the newest and best will make us/me better. It probably
won't. It may give us more options or a make a good image possibly
better depending on it's ultimate use.

Lots of pontificating, lots of words, not much information in that link.
Sharpness matters to produce edge contrast in photos.
And you can notice the difference without pixel peeping.
I'm amazed he can write 2+pages of non-sense on the subject.
