Anyone owns a GR and a Sony a7c?

Is there anyone here who happens to own both cameras? For a long while now I've been wondering how it would be using a Sony a7c (in my case with the 40mm f2.5, a relatively small and extremely fast AF lens) in a similar way as the Ricoh GR. I figure it's the most compact full frame option, where I'd mostly use the LCD (and thus not mind the smaller EVF compared to other similarly priced cameras such as the a7iii).

There are two reasons I'm considering this: the full frame 40mm look and most of all the AF. The way I understand it with cameras such as the a7c and fast lenses, the AF is so fast, I could get an incredibly fast and super high % hit rate, making snap focus and/or zone focussing obsolete.

I was wondering about the opinions of people with experience with these two cameras, or with other similarly fast Sonys.
