I can't help but wonder if you're a bit over enthusiastic regarding low-light. There really are no "excellent" 1/1.7" low-light cameras, and generally speaking CCD is not known for it's low light performance. It's great you love the S200. Nothing wrong with that. I was looking at it as a distant option as well due to price. Would love to see the excellent shots you're taking with it though. I don't mean this sarcastically. I truly am interested to see.
You may be right but as a long time and faithful (for its archival qualities, resolution and mostly accurate colour rendering) user of dynamic-range challenged Kodachrome I was impressed by the S200 (one partial F-stop greater than my S95) . I still use that camera, my older S95 and my more recently acquired full-sensor-frame image sensor SONY RX100. The latter arguably offers higher image quality but that mostly is barely noticeable so when images are played back on my 55" LG OLED TV. I would however give higher marks to the SONY camera's image processing software (not so easily upgraded on the basic RX100 model.). In hindsight, I realize the "pocket-abilty" of the PowerShot S series has been important to me than I realized. I am now looking at the also full-frame sensor equipped Canon PowerShot G9X.
