Why not buy a superzoom p&s with a much longer zoom for probably less than a new lens?

LOL I never thought of that.

Probably because you’d be shooting action with a slow lens and a tiny sensor at very high ISO’s, indoors.  Not a great recipe for the best IQ (depends on what your output requirements are though).

In these situations I’d much rather be shooting with a DSLR (or similar mirrorless), than a P&S.
