I call bull****. It's a feeler. Nowadays anyone with a few thousand
dollars and half a brain can have a nonfunctional prototype cut.

This is functioning prototype of a medium format Leica:

Finally, a Leica priced to its true material value. I'm just guessing, but
the out-the-door cost should be about 79-cents each. And true to the
thread's subject, it LEAKs.

Maybe this is what he's referring to?

To prepare for the next shot, of course.

Some years ago our coffee team occasionally ran out of cream, and we had
to drink the coffee black, until someone got enough energy to buy more.
Sometimes we even ran out of sugar. But even when drinking cafe brutal
(i.e. no spices) most people stirred it before drinking it.

P.S. It looks like an on/off switch.

It's like a slot machine! You keep pulling it, hoping to get your money
back!

Maybe for shutter cocking since the thing has no motor?
