Leaving out the rampant stereotyping, who said they had to eliminate the rangefinder entirely? Make another model without and let the market decide. Same body shell, pretty much the same internal works. Leica seems to think the M-E and New M can coexist. Why not a RF model and a non-RF model?

I have. For me the 60mm Macro is a wide-angle lens. The rnagefinder does absolutely nothing for me. I have no problem with Leica making a model with a rangefinder. I want a model with a robust EVF, without the rnagefinder. I call that getting along. The rangefinder is the component of the camera that is most likely to go out of adjustment and is one of the more expensive components of the camera.
