The XT100 is out of step with all of this due to the steeper cost cutting approach Fuji took and the fact that it doesn't really share anything with anything other than the even lowlier XA models. It's a cul de sac. I guess it's "priced to sell" as they say, but has it?

Your terminology points to a hierarchical view of kit -"even lowlier", the importance of your processor having a name, sub-par processor. Of course the cheaper camera is going to show cost cutting and can never share facilities with the more expensive stuff.

Low end users always tend to be driven off forums; look for an HX posting on the cybershot forum and it would not surprise if there are a lot more of these around than RX cameras and they are definitely not completely gone as the forum chat would imply. Look at the average price of compacts on CIPA even allowing that these are pricing at shipping. The fact that there is less posting by X-T100 or X-A users on a forum such as this covering such a wide range of kit is absolutely no indication of sales or popularity at all.
