I actually prefer a RF format over a DSLR format which has a central evf. Such camera is easier to use and the form doesn't cry loud as being a pro grade expensive camera. I would pick up a silver camera in RF format any day over a big chunky DSLR shape camera (if the internals were just as good). I also find a side evf is easier to look through than a central one because with a central one, I have to rub my nose against the back of the camera in order to look through it.
That said, I see no point of arguing about a product none of us has seen only based on rumors posted in a rumor site. It may turn out not being what the rumors are saying. SAR's information are not always correct. I remember when SAR hyped up about the new A9 ii incorporating a 36mp sensor. It created an expectation about the unreleased model. Some people got very disappointed when it turned out to carry the same 24mp sensor (albeit being tweaked). Nobody has even see a picture of this new model and its specifications and pricing are yet to be officially confirmed.
