For zoom lovers (it seams to me for you it's about zooms), the RF 24-105mm f/4.0 is an important reason to go RF over M. If that zoom is still to big for you, that might be a sign M is more your thing.
If i where in your shoes i would just order the 18-150mm, see how you like the IQ on your current M body, and return it after testing.
If the IQ is good enough for you >> go M.
If it's not, go RF, as this 18-150mm is the best standard zoom for M, and for better IQ you'll have to go RF (or go with primes).
Thanks, I'm guess I'm leaning towards the m6ii. I do have the 18-150 and it works for me. It's that darned EVF that I need to get over.
I'm just really surprised how close the RP with the RF 24-105 f/4-7.1 is to the m6ii and the 18-150. And while I do love my zooms, I could totally see slapping an RF 35 on an RP and calling it a day. Looking through my landscapes, the majority are shot from 30-35mm. I've hiked with just the 6dii and an EF 40mm and it was always just a hair too long.
Actually there's still a large difference in size between the two systems. I'd recommend playing with them again when you can. They both certainly have their particular strengths. As far as size goes, let CameraSize.com help...
Note: The RF 85mm lens (on the RP) is almost exactly the same size as the RF 24-105 f/4-7.1
You can also see the difference in other views...
6Dii on the left, RP in the middle, M6ii on the right.
Good luck with your (difficult) decision!
