Stacked sensor more noise

I was speculating a stacked sensor for the improved low light performance that's possible with a stacked sensor, and not predominately for the ability to burst. It's my understanding there are other valuable benefits from a stacked sensor design beyond shooting at high rates, that can improve image quality itself.

Nope. X-H2s (which has 26MP stacked sensor) review mentioned

"If we look at a base ISO image, raised up to the level of an ISO 3200 shot with the same exposure, you can see there's a distinct increase in noise. It's more than the X-T4 and the difference widens in the darker tones. This noise level increases a fraction if you use the camera's electronic shutter mode (and fast burst modes), meaning you're probably better off using a higher ISO, rather than sticking to base to try to protect highlights."
