Perhaps the possibility to use converters with the RF 70-200 would impair the sales of the RF 100-500 - you might get 280/5.6 or even 400/8.0, nearly same speed

It's not that - Canon's RF 100-400mm gives you that for less than ¼ the price and less than ½ the weight of the big white lens.  The smaller RF 70-200mm is quite a bit smaller and lighter than any other mirrorless 70-200mm lens and that's what it took to get that. Buy am R7 as a 1.6x extender for the 70-200mm f/4 and the pair are still only £100 more than the RF 100-500mm and you've got a backup camera into the bargain.
