Well, the Anson is somewhat attainable. I'd say that is probably the key reason for the Anson being considered the holy grail.. Some people have just accepted the fact that they'll never have the Just So Young, and moved on to something that's pretty much out of reach, but at some point, may be possible... Given the impossibility of the Just So Young, I'm honestly surprised that it came in as high as second..
