I don't think Canon wants to make great APS-c lenses listed above because they want folks to spend more on FF lenses instead. I don't think they want great apsc f1.4 lenses on their stabilized R7 body, which could potentially be so great, that it would reduce sales on their FF gear

Bingo. Protection of their upper echelons is Canon's #1 guiding principle! Always has been.

It's the reason that EF-M never saw a fast standard zoom from Canon. Or any other top-tier primes to accompany the 32/1.4. Bodies like the M6ii are so good that Canon needed a way to hold them back from taking over the world! (Or at least keep them from sucking up higher tier lens sales ).

yep, triple bingo

the reason why folks should get the m6II while they last
