Now not even be biased why did the M-Mount not get the new sigma lens. Sony makes some great aps-c camera but none of them outsell the M50. The R mount is highly guarded I get that but canon really aren't introducing a lot of glass for the M-mount let somebody do it.

Sigma already have precedence with EFM with the Sigma trio primes. Maybe they will at a later date? However, if Sigma lens sales for EFM are low, they might just think that it’s not viable.

The M50 sold really well, but it’s now discontinued and to be frank, I haven’t heard anything about the m50II or M6II being a best seller.

The M50II doesn't sell that well because it is the exact same camera with a firmware update

That would be relevant for upgraders, but for anyone initially choosing between the two, the M50 Mark II would be the obvious (and smart) choice.
