Well, if we're talking about a 'high end' APS-C body aimed at wildlife, I think the problem is that the pixel density has to be better than FF or there's no point - just use an R3/R5 in crop mode. 26MP might be sufficient, but I suspect 20MP isn't (I believe the R5 is 18MP in crop mode)

Well the 17mp's from my R5 might be enough if I needed to do little to no cropping. But even in that 17mp "crop mode" almost all of my bird shots still need at least a little cropping, sometimes more than a little.

Crop mode doesn't change the pixel density.  All it does is crop.  It discards more than half of the image.  It does enlarge the view in the viewfinder, however.
