Presumably the A7S III is in the works and will be announced soon. It's main selling point has been its mega high ISO performance. With the A7RIII and no A7III being on par with high ISO performance and low-light photography/shooting being met; WHAT advantages and benefits can the A7S III bring to the table? -- more video specific features? what else to differentiate it?

If I was a betting man, I would bet on that. The way Sony has been strategically introducing their line up, I can see the A7Siii will be another great announcement.
The original A7S was marketed also as the low-light king. As a low light stills camera as well as video. So that first proposition is no longer unique to it.
6K - that maybe the only differentiator. Any maybe global shutter?

BSI sensor would make sense as it would update all the Sony A7*** to BSI.
That would make it more sensitive and improve its already superb high ISO performance.
Not sure Sony has global shutter tech yet. I'd say that is a fair ways off.
But perhaps a stacked sensor like A9 to get rid of rolling shutter like A9 does. That would make sense for a video-centric camera.

If the A7s III wants to be competitive the bitrates need to go UP drastically, the GH5 set new standards for in-camera recording (400 Mbps at 10-bit 4:2:2, it's no competition at the moment). Furthermore, probably better autofocus would be pretty neat.
I thought A9 is equipped with a sensor that's close to global shutter?
