Re: RF800mm/f11 and size of AF-area on EOS R3/R5/R6/R7/R10

I don't mind the reduced focus area on my R6 (it's similar if not better than the AF zones I used on my 80D), but I'm more perplexed at how sloppy the subject acquisition can be in some situations using object/face/eye-tracking mode (mainly birds in flight in medium-low light), compared to the zone modes (which even further reduces the AF area). Perhaps there's another limitation but I can't see why I can't use the entire square for zone AF.
