I’m at least brand agnostic enough to keep brand names out of my online handles

Given that the R reused the 5d4 sensor and the RP reused the 6d2 sensor...yeah, I’m gonna count the R5 and R6 as their true first gen full frame mirrorless bodies. My point still stands, they are better overall packages than the A72 or A7R were. Y’all can act butthurt about that statement, or argue semantics, but the R5/R6 aren’t the total abject failures you wish they were, despite their shortcomings against the modern market.
The fact that multiple people react to “engineering is hard” by saying I’m calling Canon a startup is puzzling. Canon is one of the very few manufactures still doing their own R&D in the photo industry. They’d have it a lot easier if they pulled a Nikon and just bought Sony parts and called it a day.
Not sure in this instance I would be bragging about "doing your own R&D". No one said the R5/R6 are "abject failures". There is good tech in these cameras that was poorly marketed and rushed out the door. Which are you buying? R5 or R6?
