You are aware that most of the size savings are not because of smaller image circle for m43 but because m43 idea is to have correction in software baked in.

This is not true.  The smaller image circle means lenses have more reach.  A 100mm works like a 200mm lens.  In theory the lenses can be twice as short as FF lenses.  As for lens corrections, to me this means little.  It only concerns the far corners and from what I have read M43 lenses are usually sharper wide open than most other lenses.  They do have some very good lenses.

I don't like the 4x3 aspect ratio and the 16MP sensors.   I would very much consider a GM5 if the price was lower.   It is the size of a small Nikon 1 with a larger sensor.
