One must factor:
- time period whence manufactured.
- where manufactured and the vendor for MC
- evolutionary period for the 1.8 versus the 1.2 which is more than an
order of magnitude when adjusted to include the number of units
produced for each design X options for low cost bid for large
production runs versus small / custom lots.
FACT: "Inconsistency" in coating does NOT equate to inconsistency in
optical performance.

I believe that too, but what I see is perfect consistency in the
55/1.2 and complete inconsistency in the 50/1.8, and from economics
alone one would expect more care and tighter tolerances in the more
expensive lens.
