There is plenty of quality glass from Nikkor with a variable aperture. They are perfectly capable of making a high quality image and delivering professional results, albeit in a more narrow range of situations.
I have bags full of fixed and variable aperture lenses from Nikkor. If I don't need the speed of an f/2.8 lens, and the super shallow depth of field, I'll leave the fixed aperture lenses at home many times in favor of the smaller, lighter and very good variable app lenses, like the 18-200 and the 80-400. But if I need the speed, I can pull out the 80-200 f/2.8 AFS or the 400 f/2.8. When you have to carry your own gear in, weight matters.
Making aloof sarcastic comments doesn't help people trying to learn the trade or hobby.
