Granted, such sensor won't be Full Frame,

but larger than the current APS-C, enough to cover the 3 most common aspect ratios. 3:2, 16:9 4:3. A more efficient use of the image circle.

The enlarged sensor

major benefits are Lossless Aspect Ratios Crops, all your lenses will capture wider views when using 16:9 in Landscape and wider 4:3 views in Portrait than the current standard sensor.
The other major benefit would be 30 megapixels pictures when using EF lenses, with less crop factor while maintaining the current sensor pixel density, which would make it easier to get shallower DOF.

Would you be interested is such camera if the premium extra to pay is, lets say US $100 ?

Not sure where you dreamed up this bigger image sensor idea 🙄
