Default why isn't olympus as highly regarded as it should be?

Olympus certainly offered excellent cameras and good glass, but they never
offered a camera with full professional features, such as a true motor

drive
(not just a motor winder), or interchangeable focusing screens. Their
selection of lenses, though of high quality, was limited. And their

bodies
just could not withstand the punishment a working pro gave them.

The Olympus OM1,2,3,4 and their successors all have interchangeble

focussing screens and up to 5 fps motordrive connection.
