David, I don\'t see anything wrong in your reasoning.
The best sensors today (like in the Nikon D3s) are already above 50%.
Just to be clear here, I think the effiiciency referred to is simply the \"quantum efficiency\" - the number of electrons stored per photon landing on a sensel. The maximum is 1 (i.e, 100%). However, one could increase the storage capacity (full well capacity) or somehow decrease the read noise and both could improve SNR without changing the \"efficiency\".
I guess a sensel is still not small enough, just to catsh \"one\".
