My SWAG is the E-P# series was at its evolutionary end with the -5 because folks have come to expect an EVF in $1k cameras. Still leaves a decent size hole between the Pen F and the rest of the Pen lineup, so maybe Oly drops a surprise there someday.

The thing with the view finder is solved in general with having it in the Pen F and also in the OMD series but the advantage of the old EP3/EP5 was that with the attached VF you could angle it which is not possible with any of the OMD cams or the Pen F. This what keeps me at the moment from "upgrading" into a newer chip group since the EP5 would be the last that supports the attachable VF.

Agreed. Unobtrusive, top-down viewfinding, makes for stable shots from a lower down perspective.
