Yes, once the cameras are out in circulation, everything will be quickly known about it's strengths and weaknesses. I am hoping that the camera proves to be up to Nikons reputation for quality and performance. That is why I have one on pre-order. Wish I could take one on my trip to Teton, and Yellowstone tomorrow.

Exactly! It is only a camera and the real strength is the skill and understanding of the photographer. As with any camera system you find the workflow that suits and if it does not move on.
Having used a lot of MILC I found you must find how to work with the AF system for your style of photography. The A7r/A7s/A7II, A7rII are great cameras even today but you work with them. I had the Xpro2/XT2's and also excellent but the AF you needed to adapt a workflow. I attempted BIF with the XT2 and XF100-400 and it did not work at least for me This is one of the reasons why I moved to the D750 missing FF but more importantly just the simple fast dynamic AF. It just worked and was so cheap to pick up a used D750. There is a place for cheap FF DSLR's as well as MILC's.
In spite of all the conjecture I feel the Z7 and Z6 will be excellent but it will like any MILC the Z7/Z6 will have their limitations.
