I would agree. People often confuse (there's that word again) the
"perception" of sharpness gained with a small aperture with lens sharpness.
Often its better to trade off sharpness for depth of field because, if there
are more things in your photo that are in focus, the entire photo subjectively
appears to be sharper.
