That actually explains, in part, my personal reasons (related earlier in this thread) for choosing to not upgrade to the R System: the use case for it is weak. (YMMV.)
As i explained, I primarily though not exclusively use a 5DsR for tripod-based landscape photography. While the nearest Canon R body (R5ii) is a fine camera and has some real-world advantages (and some disadvantages) relative to the 5DsR, they are not significant enough to warrant the replacement for that use.

Related to some other posts in this thread, it would be good for some of you to look up a definition of “technology” (like this one) since it doesn’t mean quite what you think it means. Hint: It does not mean “a really new thing.”
Some technologies: the wheel, sailing ships, pipe organs, pens, paper, etc…
