SNIP>> BBF and photo quality do not relate. Either your focal points work, or they don't. But the fact of how you get your camera to auto focus has no influence.
Your statement is in direct contradiction to the opinions expressed in soooo many articles and videos touting BBF as the 'best thing since autofocus.' Lol, half-joking...
I think some of that is how people word it because it can easily come across that the button results in better AF performance rather than coming across that it allows better engagement of the AF by the user which results in improved use of AF.
I also think that some AF systems do confuse people with the various options they've got, esp when you factor in that tricky situations and moving targets are often going to result in misses or slight misses even on a perfectly calibrated system with perfect shooting and that sometimes its going to be hard to work out "what failed". Ergo drawing the line between user error; machine error and just too hard for the machine to achieve.
