Electronic shutter on the R3, every day all day.

Same here, until I run into a problem with that. Hasn't happened yet.

Well, the range of circumstances in which the shutter choice would matter for rolling speed is relatively small with the R3.  If I had an R3, I'd have it set to e-shutter almost all of the time.  There could be situations, though, in which the difference could be visible; something moving vertically in the frame at exactly the same speed as the shutter roll could be stretched down the whole height of the frame at about 5ms, but could be distorted much less at 3ms - 4ms with EFCS or full mechanical.
