I cannot be held accountable for what appears to be the result of an Internet equivalent of "Chinese Whispers". I've never held such claims up.

Indeed. The level of interest in the SS surprised me, even after I had made it quite clear that the differences were very minor. Exclusivity is perhaps the best explanation as to why.
Still, I do wonder at the rationale for $171 worth of exclusivity for ~$55 worth of material for the block referred to in the opening post.

Again, I had made that quite clear many times, along with the 0.5-1.0C difference. I deemed the design changes fairly necessary, even if only for the ~10% higher thermal conductivity of the silver base over the copper version. Just like one wouldn't use the exact same design for aluminium to copper, copper to silver is just different enough to generate the need for tweaks.
The Internet works in funny ways.
