Yet plenty of people bought the Pen F for it's design.

I doubt many dismissed it because they didn`t like the shape of the EVF eyepiece or that there was a dial on the front which worked only with JPGs

I dismissed the Pen F in significant part because of its design - didn't like the knob on front and hated the fact that it had no grip, other than the expensive, heavy, and ugly add-on grip.  Other factors were the price, the fact that I had already purchased a GX8, and reviews finding its AF sub-par.  I admit it's a very pretty camera, but no way I would have bought it because of that.  I think plenty of old-timer Oly enthusiasts did, though.
