Since 2006 I've been shooting motorsports professionally* with a Sony Cybershot DSC H5. On a good day I can fire about a shot a second. Usually not. My shots are usually planned ahead of time because it's so easy to miss it when you get one or two chances.
We would call you the exception, not the rule.
I maintain stronger than ever than camera does matter.
To a point. But the situations you describe are not similar. An analogous situation might be a laborer complaining that he needs a vehicle, and the good samaritan comes up and gives him a KIA. Can he get his tools and gear and what not into the KIA and to his work-site? Sure. Is that the right class of car for the job? Not even close. Now if you took him to a dealership that ONLY sold heavy load trucks, the differences are going to be in comfort and ease of use, not usability. The same applies to cameras. No sane person is going to bring a disposable camera to Fashion Week or to a once in a lifetime trip to Thailand. There are (pretty clear to most people) levels of "cameras", and once you get into a specific level any camera will suffice (this includes - for whatever reason - using a D40 to take in-studio portraits). It is the ease of use and comfort of the individual cameras that will seperate them from the pack, but they will not leave the level of usability they are assigned to.
