frankly, the squishy and imprecise feel of the shutter release button (slightly improved on the X-T5 but still not very good) tend to cause a lot of misfocusing problems.

It is gentle yes - squishy and imprecise not at all.

I don’t agree with you on this. I did find the shutter button on my X-H1 light and tricky at first, but soon got used to it, and like many other fuji owners, I like it. I do half press a great deal, without issue.

I repair lenses so my hands and fingers are accustomed to being gentle, and I only have the one camera for my muscle memory to learn.
