The semantic confusion here is caused by
the total lack of any definition of "BEST";-)...

It is very hard to navigate in this landscape

We don't even know here which way is UP or DOWN.

Time to leap up a meta level or two, beyond this level of babel.

I think Vernon is getting closest to making sense.

Look at VHS over Betamax.
