You have your analyses, you have your requirements. What should we think about? To me it is all about the system, so lenses too and that combo's size and weight. Not much has changed at all.

Since 2012 mFTs has had its own development too. Much better AF especially C-AF with Panasonics, but also EM1. Video and still IQ has gone up (but for stills compared to the Em5, which is also 2012, not much). Lens choice is still to my mind by far the best and unqiue in the mirrorless segment but most importantly I cannot find equivalents in my case in any other systemcam.

But to each their own. We can make a fuss about the details, but Sony and Fuji will get you where you want too (Fuji not for video, okey..). So does it matter? If you are nitpicking like me it does, but a more realistic view tells me that "not so much" is the better answer.
