It should be obvious that people would vote for wanting 3rd Party lenses in RF mount. But not everybody has. Why could you possibly not want that?

because some folk want different things to you

You don't have to buy them if you don't want to. But experience tells us that they are generally cheaper ( I know some people on DPR have unlimited funds!) and the odd ones crop up that are better than the OEM version. What's not to like? Then again, some people voted for Brexit!

There is a big list of negatives with 3ed party lenses

just like Brexit ..but some still voted for it

Such as? There seems to be no negatives on the FE mount. They focus like native lenses and many are competitive with (or better than) Sony's offerings. What's not to like?

+1 if same approach as Sony and 3rd party lenses all play nicely.  Now many of course do with canon mirrorless already as adapted EF - just a shame some like the 150-600 sigma does not.. but it could!

Optically the sigma's in particular can be brilliant and give great choice - that sigma 18-50 f/2.8 as RF and EF-M would be great!
