As I’ve been personally involved with dozens of such threads...it is not negative. The XTrans has advantages over Bayer...especially in moire and noise from raw. Sorry, but this is an old argument

If you want to play with raw files - you are no longer comparing just the CFA but the raw developer.

Jim explains it all here:

It would no longer be Bayer vs X-Trans CFA but Adobe vs. Capture One vs. Irdient processing software or whatever developer you want to bring in.

I understand all that...but that isn’t the issue here.  If we compare two different cameras in raw in Iridient...then it is a level playing field.  Same if both are done in C1 or Lr.  If we compare the results with numerous raw converters...and this has been done here many times...we have found that XTrans does have some advantages...mainly in Moire  and noise
