Because the M system is a dead end one.

And yet, the M50 is Canon's best selling mirrorless camera, both in the USA and in Japan.

It is still a dead end system in Canon's MILC world and one with a pathetic native lens catalog that Canon chose to orphan with the release of the RF mount. Canon has shown little reason why the M system will be around long term. Eight years in and they still haven't built a compelling lens catalog and are letting 2nd party lens makers take profits they would be taking themselves if they were committed to this system. Now that the RF mount is off limits for it the M system's future doesn't look all that bright, IMO. Especially considering the commitment they have shown to the R system in just 2.5 years. If APS-C comes to the RF mount I don't see the M system being actively supported for the long term by Canon.

If APS-C comes to the RF mount I don't see Canon having as much commitment to it as they have had to the M system.

Do they really lack commitment or is the M system already exactly what they intended it to be?
