Thanks very much for responding. As you stated, it may make sense to try the R7 and see how it works. I expect pre-order will be required or it may take many months to actually get one.

The Z9 you mentioned appears to hit a sweet spot for my type of photography with the 500 pf and the new 800 being excellent lens options.

Yes.  It should work well for me too.  I had a 1.4 lll glued to my 600 F4 ll.  Therefore, the 800 F6.3 at 5lbs would be a dream lens for hand holding and travel... for the long end.  However, I hear the new Canon RF 500 F4 will be much lighter than the current 500 F4 ll.  The new RF version will have big shoes to fill, as the 500 f4 ll was the best lens I ever owned.  Sold it for the 600 F4 ll, regrettably.
