Call it as you wish, I'm not a professional photographer but to my eyes, all the portraits I see taken with Sony cameras have either weird skin tones or heavily graded (to hide they're just weird). Canon portraits just look more natural to my eyes. But of course, color perception is relative, etc.

Well this is where you have totally lost me. Even the best Canon image can stand some post processing. When I shot exclusively Canon, I still did significant processing on every picture.
Well there's this category of images (usually referred to as "snapshots") that, while they could use some post processing, are not worth the effort as they are of little actual value. It appears that numbertwo has found that the Canon R is more adept at producing those to his taste. "De gustibus et coloribus non est disputandum".
Sony's metering, auto ISO and skin tones are slightly off compared to Canon/Nikon. This is why I use adapted glass to shoot portraits, I don't care for the skin tones created by a Sony camera + lens combination. Usually I apply batch color grading with my Sony images using DXO Filmpack.
