They are responding to Fuji's dominance of the cropped sensor market, maybe? [...]

For every camera Fuji sells (both crop and not-so-medium format) Canon sells more than 5 crop cameras. You'll have to very narrowly define the market for Fuji to 'dominate'.

Looking at units sold over the past few years, Canon sold 8 to 10 times the number of units Fuji did and during earning calls Canon has said that the bulk of their unit sales is from crop bodies (the bulk of the profit is from the up-market stuff, like FF bodies).

Fuji does put in a lot more effort in their bodies and lenses for crop, but isn't dominating that market, yet.
