Oh, they do read it. The Style PS is just a recent example. If I remember correctly, (I'm on my phone so I can't check) Obudsman designed it and Andreas made it. Leatherman just copied the idea.
That's exactly what happened !

on behalf of Leatherman, they may had the idea and we just pushed them to make it real.
So, lets hope the same happens with Victorinox and they decide to make the mini tool !
