It really isn’t. They used to sell to a very discerning but tiny slice of the public who was very bought into the brand. Now the sheer numbers dictate that they are addressing a much larger slice of the market (most of the market in some geographies and product categories) that isn’t anywhere near as bought in to the brand.
