Yep, I remember when the transition in camera meters from CdS to
so-called "silicon blue cells" was getting well underway, pundits
opined that we shouldn't get too attached to (or worry too much about)
the characteristics of those silicon cells, 'cause they'd all be
replaced by Gallium Arsenide Real Soon Now. That was... a few years
ago.
