For the purpose of this discussion, Bayer sensor is used here in the sense of "Bayer sensor without or with a very week AA filter. It is also assumed that the rest is the same, number of Mpixels, the underlying manufacturing technology, same generation of Sny sensors, etc.

X-trans wins:

  • X-trans outresolves Bayer sensor without AA when you shoot patterns with very dense horizontal and vertical lines
  • Bayer generates moire in this area, it is easily fixable in PP, but the resolution does not match X-trans

It is not easily fixable. You can remove most of the colour rainbow in the fabric for example, but the B&W lumi part of the moire cannot be removed. If you think it is easy, you have not tried...and thus should not make statements

No idea what you talk about. Fixed all moire in my photos many times, never had a photo ruined by moire.

Anyway, it starts to remind me the good old Monty Python sketch.
