How important is size to you? And small light (and excellent) lenses? F/1.4 lenses? UWA zoom?

I don't find these rumors far fetched considering Canon just made an EF-M 55-200 "killer". I do consider it a killer too btw considering it's improved optical performance, even though it gave up 1/3 stop.
I would never buy a camera based on loose rumors. "Coming alongside the R50" ? No, It didn't. And not even a "cr" rating on these rumors. My advice is wait, wait, wait and wait before you buy a APS-C R mount camera. It can take a long looong time before it has got something close to the EF-M lens line up. IF ever !
RF-S: Slower lenses. Larger lenses. Fewer lenses. No F/1.4 lenses. No Sigma trio.
The RF-S 55-210mm is slower, heavier and much larger and does not fit nicely in a pocket as the EF-M 55-200 does.
Canon started the RF mount claiming FF dominance
now APSC cameras are showing up as an afterthought.
the R6II and R8 will rule the roost.
I own the R6II.
you finally bit the larger FF bullet
It is a great camera and I am sure the R8 will also be.
R8 form factor smaller

Canon EOS R8

But they are both large and expensive (and it gets even worse when you include a lens) in comparison to an M camera.
but it gets expensive also when you are an enthusiast (like those that frequent these forums) and you start buying a bag full of primes because they don't ive you a bright zoom
and then you've spent all that money and finally do what you did, buy FF
They belong to a completely different category. And I think it is rather off topic to start discussing FF cameras in this forum.
the category you are referring to is newbie camera, 1 kit lens
these forums aren't filled with newbies
except for maybe R7 with long lenses, skip buying anymore APSC
That is also a much too large camera for people who really love the small size of the M cameras and lenses.
but the overall size is more when they don't give us a bright zoom for m and then folks are carrying a bag full of primes, where the size and even cost of my R8 ($1499) + RF 24-105 F4 ($899) will be less !!!
