Thanks, everyone.
@davesurrey. You hit the nail on the head. I am in "analysis-paralysis" mode.
sell what you do not use
On the one hand, I would like a system to be light, so I am more inclined to carry it; on the other, I have noticed that on occasion, I have to push the ISO to 5000 and even 6400 to capture anything, even if it is grainy. Meanwhile, with each iteration, mobile phone cameras improve.
I am not enamoured with the latest technology, nor does my audience (friends and family) care what camera or lens was used.
Outside of the 50/1.4, I don't use any other EF/EF-S equipment. The 24-105/4, for example, is 700 gms. The 17-55/2.8 EFS and 70-300/4-5.6 EF are each over 600 gms.
sell what you do not use
So one part of my paralysis is whether I should sell my seldom-used EF and EFS equipment (B&H used gives an estimate of $1800). The second part is whether I should bother with the RF-S or RF systems. The former might not have Canon's wholehearted support, and the latter might not be much lighter than the EF system it replaces.
sell what you do not use
I already eliminated Fuji since they do not have a light (sub 250gm) wide-angle zoom (16-35 in FF equivalence) and Sony since their 6000 series are dated, and the ZVE10 is missing an EVF.
gravitate to what you like that is light

sell what you do not use that is heavy
add the m32 f1.4 to your m kit
and get the RF 18-150 for an R10
