Being a salesman, I understand hype.

All my MF lenses are "silver nose" which seemed to be popular at one time; just as black bodies were all the rage, blacking out all the numbers and lettering on them popular, and more recently Titanium bodies (or at least the color).

I've used them under a very wide range of lighting conditions and never noted any flare problem from the silver nose. The fringe benefit of a sliver nose: it's much more difficult to "brass" the nose on them compared to the "black nose" lenses.
