The M6ii has been $850 at most big outlets for a very long time.

certainly not twice as much, and much more longevity.

Completely different classes of cameras. With different appeal.

The only model that makes sense in the M lineup is the M50 for about $600 (because of price/ performance).

M50 has always been too stripped down for me. I prefer the up-specced M6ii by a large margin. Best to get one now.

M50II auto focus is so much better the M50 is a no go.

The dog can go in and out of the frame and the M50II will pick it back up,

Yes. My wish is that there’ll be an M6iii with the firmware upgrades that the M50ii got!!

The M6ii is so incredibly good with Spot AF, that I wish for the same capabilities with its Face/Eye Detect!

Or even my RP !

Why not ?

I bet I could fall for a R10. I love good auto focus !

Even the R10 will have absolutely KILLER autofocus. DIGIC X will ensure that.

Hate it that it won't mount my 32mm or 11-22mm.

Yes indeed.  Two great reasons to still shoot M!!
