Now that I have seen images of said discussion I agree - not a good design. I know others wanted a standard ISO hot shoe, but what I do not understand is why Sony would change a design that worked.

Yes - the old iISO design worked. If I needed something ISO there are plenty of adapters out there that work well. Yes it's an extra adapter but more often than not most of us do not need those other ISO only accessories. And so what when we do... there is an adapter and again they work just fine.

I posted awhile back that I could not see them changing to ISO and I was wrong but I am correct in that change is not always good. IMO some things are better left alone. I'm sure they will fix it in the next round of changes.
