Your not getting a lot of love here.

As you pointed out there are things that a larger sensor is capable of that a mft camera is not. Particularly if you are looking at the wide end of the system where MFT is lacking in choices and legacy lenses cannot be adapted. At the end of the day the MFT is system is generally smaller and cheaper. Your call on what is important to you. The a7 series in particular is an interesting comparison. The ii models have finally opened up a wealth of adapted lenses with reasonable auto focus.

At the end of the day think about your images and your lifestyle. If you are getting everything you want out of your camera than you would be wasting money. As someone pointed out the difference in mft and apsc if you like the 4/3 format is not that large. If you like the 3/2 format it is. If you want to keep your kit as small as possible a larger system would sit at home rendering any image improvements or capabilities moot

To each his own
