Why should a satisfied user of a g80 consider to upgrade to g90?

As always every time the new body comes around the then old new body is shelfed to the second one/backseat. So just question out interest: would you upgrade as hobby photographer and sell your g80 in order to buy the g90?

From G7 to G80 that was a resonable big step ahead.

shuttershock control by much better shutter, 4K usage improved, button layout, even more stacked with features, weathersealing,

So what is shining bright comparing the G80 vs G90?

sensor improvement and resolution? 16Mp vs 20Mp? new one. Does this improvement shows more then alone more cropability?

Rearranged buttonlayout? Was the G80 not good enough? I mean new can be just new not really better.

video: yes highspeed/slowmotion video is not present on the g80. (why? on purpose i think to keep the distance of the GH serie.) but now ?G9 and G90 has those slowmotion posibility so firmware upgrade on G80 done.

any thing else?

How refreshing to find somebody who understands what the vast majority of us are, ie hobby photographers, and questions how much money they throw at their hobby.  Every time that I get the itch for new equipment I remind myself that it is just my hobby, and then try to justify further investment.

I also use a G80, and I won't go for a G90 until they are on the used market at a price that I can justify for a 20 megapixel sensor. And I actually enjoy using, and the the output from, my old G2 so I can't even justify a G90 as a second body (yet).
