Your comments strike me as those of someone who is not a professional, but somehow knows what professional photographers need.

What benefit would it be for a professional wedding photographer who uses m4/3's system to "always have a FF camera as a back up, just in case"? In case of what?

I shoot corporate events and weddings professionally, and never carry a FF, "just in case". I use two E-M1's, and they not only are perfectly adequate to provide my client with high quality images, but they offer advantages that a FF DSLR does not.

Other then size what advantages are there?

There are types of photography that definitely call for FF 35mm, just as there are for medium format -- event photography is not one of those types.

That's just the reality.
