>competing means doing similarly well at the same price, not doing similarly well at a lower price
"Winning" the argument by defining words to win by default doesn't prove any point.
>nobody would by the competition if it was the same price
As long as people like you religiously believe they are getting a premium product regardless of reality, companies like Wacom can charge extra for their brand. If faced with a similar quality item at a similar price, most people will buy the one with the more established name on it, the brand they either have good experience with already or that they heard about, as in either their friends whose opinion they trust use it or they've noticed the brand's reputation. It's called corporate identity and lets you sell equal or even worse products at a higher price because you sell something immaterial along with it, either trust, or status.
This is Apple's entire business model, nothing new.
If you insist on using something of the same price, even if you could get the same quality for cheaper, that's on you for buying the feeling of buying from the market leader, which sounds like that's what you actually want.
