A Nikon D800 can easily deliver less DOF and more one-shot-resolution for nonstatic subject matter with particular lenses like the Sigma 50/1.4 Art or a Zeiss 135/2 APO.

Medium format for shallower DOF for the most part lacks fast lenses.

The matter is whether you need this, want to haul the weight around and pay the price.

I am using both D800 and my just bought EM1MARK2 and know the difference.

Most of the time M43 does provide the IQ shooters want. But there are some times when people need more and that is what FF is for. But it is a relatively small amount of the time.

Sure, but you need good and fast lenses if you want to take advantage of the larger sensor. It's the same problem with mirrorless medium format cameras, Fuji and Hasselblad. If you don't have proper lenses, you cannot take full advantage of larger sensor.
