If you believe the details in my post above are wrong (though it's pretty much the same as your referenced thread), I'd be glad to discuss over at dpr - I have several thousand posts over the last decade there also.

Nothing's wrong with the images as posted for web usage. As I noted above, if you want to print these at 18x12 or so, the image degradation due to diffraction would be quite noticeable.

But what's important is what you like. When (typically dpr-type) folks tell me what I should do to a photo, especially when it is about obeying certain "never do that" technical rules, I like to visit this site.
