(Disclosure: I did the understatement.com piece) I agree with many of the points people are making (there are some differences, there are many Helvetica/etc based fonts, etc).

Can you imagine if at Apple's iPhone 4/iOS 4 launch they said "and our first big feature is: we're dropping Helvetica! For Helvetica Neue!"
