Yea, I see many people who are discouraging of slogans which tell them
that they not so best to use that product.
"Champions choice" - but I am not a champion, so that a product is not
for me.

"Champions choice" - but I cannot be a champion, because there are so
many companies that much bigger that my, they will use Firebird - not
I.

Sorry, but these dark thoughts will provoke such slogan. If you are
small company or small group of developer - to do something really big
and competitive - you need a "Real Legend", not just "breakfast for
champions".
