This whole lens not sharp enough for sensor business applies to everyone. But arguably least to Canon.
For a example, the EF-M 11-22 outrsolves the Sony 10-18 by 20%, once again being tested on an inferior 18MP body.

And lastly, the Sony 16-50, again, is outresolved with the MP advantage...

First, what do Sony lenses have to do with the ability of EF-M lenses to resolve 32mp?
Second, a higher resolution sensor makes a lens look worse, not better. Switch your comparison to the 20mp a3000 and the Sony lenses get much closer to the EF-M lenses.
Third, you absolutely positively can not compare lens tests that were shot with different cameras. Different cameras means different image sensors, different micro lenses, different resolutions, different AA filters, different RAW conversions, etc. You can only compare lenses shot with the same camera. Here is the same lens tested on two different 20mp cameras with different results

Fourth, DXO scores are utter nonsense and virtually meaningless.
