A lot of this has as much to do with variables that have nothing to do with which CFA your sensor is sporting. While they try to maintain controlled conditions, these images are shot sometimes years apart and the conditions aren't always exactly the same. With these X-A5 images, which do indeed look great, I think someone just got the focus a little bit better where you are choosing to make comparisons - look at the feather and green stuff in the upper right hand corner of the X-A5 image, and the right side in general, it's significantly softer, and just like elsewhere where the X-Trans image is softer, neither discrepancy probably has all that much to do with which sensor was used.

Haha, I thought the same when examining the two shots earlier when the post started, but dismissed that thoughts as I assumed f/5.6 would have enough DoF to not make a difference. You've just confirmed my suspicion, perhaps one camera focuses better than the other?
