Don't count out RF-S just yet.  We are not even 8 months into the existence of RF-S, and there are already solid rumors of more RF-S gear coming in just a few months.  Look at where the M system was at 8 months in.  Canon needs to move all crop sensor DSLR sales to RF-S.  Two bodies and two lenses won't cut it.  Canon will need to expand RF-S significantly, and they will need to do it quicker than they ever did with the M system.  RF-S may look like a lateral move today, but advancing technology and a broader model lineup will change that view in the not to distant future.

Give it another year, and I bet we are at four RF-S bodies and five RF-S lenses.  And here's a thought... One of the rumored RF-S cameras coming this year is supposed to be marketed toward vlogging and will have a form factor similar to the M6 II.  What if Canon was the first manufacturer to not be a bonehead and they put IBIS in their compact vlogging camera?  Odds are slim, and it would probably use the new 24mp sensor with the M50 tilt-swivel screen, but still interesting.  Add the rumored RF-S 22mm pancake to that camera and it gets even more interesting.
