Maybe you've reach the limits of what m43 can do.
I have, hence no more m43 purchases or recommendations.

I’ve been doing a bunch of shooting lately with my new OM-1 and 150-400, and am finding myself very disappointed in the image quality. Unless the shooting situation is ideal, with lots of light and close to subject, the files lack critical sharpness, and appear very “muddy”. I have to work the hell out of them in Topaz Photo AI, and maybe even a bit additional sharpening in NIK to produce something that’s barely acceptable. Today I was shooting an owl and used a tripod, and fully expected the files to be great, and they were horrific. What could be wrong?
One setting I changed a while ago (due to a recommendation) was the “Image Stabilizer” setting in-camera (first menu tab; page 8). I forget what the default setting was (likely S-IS 1), but I’ve recently had it on S-IS Auto. Could that be the problem?
I’m very frustrated. I bumped into a friend today while shooting, and he uses the Fuji X-H2S with the Fuji 150-600, and the 1.4 TC, and really likes it; the results are sharp. I have to wonder now if I should have got that instead. 6 more MP and larger sensor might be enough to make a difference? I dunno. I’m starting to wonder if I should have kept my A1 and 200-600 with 1.4, but that was 2.5 lbs heavier than the OM kit.
I think that the 150-400 is a killer little lens, but the OM-1 just isn't cutting it.
Thoughts?
So, you have come back twice now to post on as many topics, negatively If you are that unhappy as you say you are with Micro Four Thirds, why do all the postings? Best for you to cut the cord and move on with your life where you can be happy and perhaps help people with the equipment you are happy with.

But here you are?
