Sorry, click bait headline. Yes, the camera is worth it in general but...

Seems to be the EVF/OVF is the defining feature. If you find you like EVF better, is there any reason to get an X100V as opposed to one of the other Fuji X bodies and lenses?

The only other Fuji with a corner EVF this good is the X-Pro3. It's also the smallest Fuji with an f2 lens.

I like the camera but I am a fan of the film sims, and the OVF is a fun, different experience but I also like a EVF, especially if I’m shooting a film simulation, I like seeing how the shot will roughly come out vs just the OVF view. So if I’m just going to put it in EVF mode all the time, is the X100V the best option?

I just traded from an X-Pro2 to an X100V and the EVF is a noticeable improvement.
