Markus and I are, of course, often debating about specific ratings but I'm afraid that you're seeing a dissent although there is none (or at least very little - we are humans, of course). A primary misconception is probably that you assume that the MTFs and CAs are the primary weights in the final verdict. They're heavy, of course, but they're still only part of a global picture.
Anyway, I would suggest that just stop this endless C vs N debate. It just leads nowhere. As mentioned many times the brand differences are really minor with outliers on a local basis only. So please ...

I was reacting to a post which suggested this particular 35mm f1.4 from Nikon was far superior than the comparable Canon, Klaus. The post was referring to the photozone tests of each lens, so just read my post only in that context.
