What we old synth nerds need to understand is that there are always new synth nerds leaving the worlds music schools, quite often with a fat wad of disposable income/parents cash, and they want to build their own little studios to make the next mega-hit.
This is the driving force behind Behringer and all the re-issuing goings-on and such.
But the synth world is a fashion scene. Devices and techniques and engines go in and out of fashion.
The recent Gearmulator releases have lit a serious fire under the DSP-synth world precisely because folks really want these old synths, and I suppose its quite fun to take the real DSP firmware and emulate them:

(Disclaimer: have worked professionally in the synth world for decades, I have my biases and also new releases on the horizon ..)
