X-T2 and X-T20 users, how often do you see purple (sensor) flare in your photos?

I was surprised to see quite a few photos showing signs of purple sensor flare with grid pattern when scrolling through the latest gallery of sample shots taken with 50mm f2 at:

https://www.dpreview.com/samples/9378818888/fujifilm-xf-50mm-f2-r-wr

You clearly see this in at least four photos there (22, 23, 29 and 32).

I wonder if the extent of the problem is larger than how it is commonly described (as negligible) and if it is any different between x-t2 and x-t20 (please leave comments on this). If this is a frequent issue when shooting against the sunlight, Fujifilm needs to look into it!

I have seen this in a very small number of photos - nothing to be concerned about.

It happens quite regularly when shooting against the sunlight and needs to be addressed by Fujifilm (suggest how in comments).
