I am sure that Canon studies the demographics of the camera market.  I am 77 years old.  I am an active photographer.  In fact, I now have a great deal more time to pursue my hobby than I did in earlier years.  I have been using m43 cameras for 10 years.  I purchased a M6ii last year to try it out.  My local brick and mortar store said that if I hated it, I could bring it back in a day or two.  I loved the little camera and the files that it produced.  I cannot carry a camera the size of the R series with their large lenses and enjoy myself.  There are many photographers, like myself, in the 60 and older range who do not want to use cell phones or carry a large brick of a camera.  We are where the bulk of the camera market is.  We also want IBIS.  We will spend the money and it is worth it to Canon to support our market.
