Let me see if I can bring the discussion away from cost or how big a lens group a particular manufacturer makes.
2 of those owners that I am aware of that owns th EF 1200mm are the Sultan (King) of Brunei (a major oil producing nation in Asia) and steve Balmer of Microsoft. Both of these individual has all the money in the world and still they do not go out to buy the whole collection as shown in the advertisement. They only buy those they think they like or need.
Next, in the same advertisement there are also lots of junk and reduntant lenses.
OK! Now lets divert the issue to No Live View on the Sony bodies that has IBIS. My opinion is that they will never be able to come out with one anytime soon.
Look at it this way: with OIS/IS/VR the element group shift in the opposite direction of the movement and so one is still to see the subject in Live View.
Now with IBIS, the sensor move in the opposite direction as the motion, so what do you think you will see? Yes! Blury picture unless your brain is able to decipher it fast enough.
Oops! Almost forgot before another war start going.
Good pictures does not necessary requires OIS/IS/VR/IBIS as seen in price winning photos since the beginning of photography.
