Perpetual innovator DJI is best positioned. They focus on modularization and miniaturisation and 'own' the consumer drone market (90%). Action cams, gimbals and the masterful Ronin 4D. An M-mount EVF camera would be a walk in the park for their engineers. That would get a lot of talking about, even just an announcement of intent would set the hares running.
Have you seen the prices for DJI products these days? They are not cheap - total fantasy to assume DJI would waste their time with a cheap low end M-mount camera when they can charge far more for Hasselblad or under their own brand.
IF you own an M11 and shoot with Leica M lenses, then Hasselblad X2Dii prices are $2400 less than an M11, The SL3 is about $100 more than the X2Dii which has many, many better features which has been discussed many times here with 10 stop IBIS at the top of the list along with the BSI 100MP sensor. SL APO prime lenses sell new for around $2000 more than Hasselblad prime V lenses which offer a clutch to switch immediately to manual focus if desired.
