Agree, but let's not go that way. There will be a thousand of inputs that we should all switch to Iridium as it is known to outperform the Adobe ACR and our observations will be easily dismissed.

I prefer to focus on the native Fuji processing engine instead, if they can't show significant advantages, then again, what's the point of having a different Sony sensor for them today?

X-Trans does still have a small advantage in the moire department and with optimal demosaicing I might be able to get a tiny bit more fine detail out of an X-Trans file, but I agree, with high MP AA filterless sensors it’s advantages hardly outweigh its drawbacks (for Lightroom users, anyway). I’d very much like to see a premium Bayer model.
