As Harald already admitted this entire debate has been about companies business interests and not technical merits. There is ABSOLUTELY NO TECHNICAL REASON to have 2 MTI video codecs. This has been company business interest from the start.

Just about every comment I see in this thread is about what advances or disadvantages a particular company that the individual works for.

I was about to make the same point that Harald did, but he beat me to
it: the questions were asked together because the nature of the
compromise was, for many people, "I'm okay with X if and only if Y".
Characterizing this as an unconditional acceptance of one without the
other is ridiculous.
