I agree. The norton 4k/8k+CrOx was one of the standard honing setups back in 2006, before the ready availability of the high-grit hones (the other was collectively N4k/8k+high-grit hone which was some variant of coticule, escher, C12k, or swaty). Once the 16k and 30k glassstones came out then they were the hot set-up for guys that didn't like paste but did like that wonderful edge, and then the nakayamas and Spyderco UFs came out, and at some point the new guys merged the N4k/8k+chromeox system with the N4k/8k+high-grit hone system to get this gotta-use-everything system.
