I do have a 300f4 so i could compare it with the 100-400.

the purpose of all cameras is to capture images. I would strongly conclude that that purpose includes the m4/3 system as whole. some folks may use a camera for other purposes (antique/collectable/status symbol/conversation piece) other than for capturing images...to each their own but that does not change the actual original intended purpose of the camera.
the purpose of a lens is to put light onto the camera's film/sensor. the 150-400 does that whether we like the size/price of it or not.
