RE: Here's the way I heard it....

The way I see it if you watch the marketing video done by the lady that's running Technics, who in my opinion unless they are lying like lying liars is a true analog hifi enthusiast, the effort to remake the SL1200 meant finding the 80something engineers that still lived (because they had completely forgotten the art of turntable engineering) and re-learning how to do it, train a new team and then finally put the product together.

All the while she was probably (now this is my own thinking) fighting against the more "modern" Panasonic brass who hoped she would fail spectacularly.

IF the video reflects the true passion they put into the product and isn't just a Japanese-style marketing snow job, then the team inside Panasonic that created the new SL is, IMO, just as passionate and worthy as the VPI team of my audio dollars.
