the point is: if you want the same background blur in mft as in ff, you need the same focal length, so you have to increase the distance to your object. in portrait photography this will increase compression and your model may look a bit flat and ugly. exapmle: robin wong´s new entry with the 75 1.8. look at the portraits, they all look flat

I personally wouldn't shoot a person with a long lens for a portrait, but there are lots of other things that work fine.
