Me too, though it's only 5FPS with AI Servo AF (which is still pretty great at that price point).So I'll say it. DPRAW + 8 fps seals it. EOS R is (kinda) a mirrorless 5D4.
If this is $2000, I'd be completely stunned.

Yeah, sadly. A 2 year old 5d4. No IBIS, no 120f at 1080p, no dual card slots, shitty battery life, recycled sensor. I regret to have waited so long for this ancient garbage. These specs put this camera below a73 And below Z7, in form and function. Enjoy your touchbar though...It's not a 6D2 at all other than having a tilty-flippy and one card.
6D2 doesn't have a 30 MP (presumably on-chip ADC) sensor
6D2 doesn't have burst higher than 6.5 fps
6D2 doesn't have DPRAW
6D2 doesn't have 4K
You know what does? A 5D4.

AA filter on sensor. Hmm. That was a surprise. I was expecting it to be gone. Is there a reason for that these days? Does anyone else have it on their ML cameras?
"Auto Focus range: EV – 6 to 18 (23 ° C at room temperature · ISO 100 with F1.2 lens)"
Just a question about AF up to -6EV which is a very desirable feature of the R camera.
How better is this rating compared to 5D4 which was -3EV with F2.8? (BTW. AF on 5D4 has been excellent in low light)
Does it mean that 5D4 has -6 EV at 3 stops lower, which is F1? and EOS R has -6 EV at F1.2? so overall, a bit (2/3 stop or so) better than 5D4?
We'll know soon enough how Canon will price this thing anyway. You're right that Canon doesn't always look elsewhere as a reference to set their prices (if they did the R would easily be a sub $2000 body), but Canon has just as much a habit of overpricing stuff as underpricing it (as the M50 or most of their recent lens releases suggest), so there is quite a lot of unpredictability here.
What the heck is up with all those af points though? Did they make every pixel an af point?

Everyone must have $2k locked in the brain as the surefire 'must' that will happen -- that's the only way I can rationalize people saying that a camera with a lot of 5D4 spec/features is aimed at the Z6 and A7 III.

Don't get me wrong, Canon may shock me and offer a $2k rig here. It's a hybrid of a 6D2 and 5D4, but Canon historically doesn't dole out the FF sensor goodness on the cheap. They protect the price of cameras that have the good stuff.
If you could get a 5D4 sensor and image quality and a tilty-flippy for $2k instead of the $3099 5D4 asking price, I'd imagine Canon would lose a lot of 5D4 sales.
Perhaps that's okay if everyone buys 2-3 new RF lenses, though. That might cover giving these bodies away at a much lower margin. We'll see.

(b) is very important to me. If I just wanted to get a perfect camera on paper, a Sony would knock it out of the ballpark, but based on my own experience, I far prefer using my lowly 6D2. It will boil down to whether the new Canon mirrorless is fun to use and is a competent a camera in my hands doing the type of photography I like. If I enjoy it and it takes good pictures, the price point is an unlikely obstacle; the bigger issue for me would be how many RF lenses to buy and which to just keep as EF -- not so much at launch, but as they trickle out.I should (and will) reserve judgment until a) an announcement is made and we get a price and b) I've had a chance to actually hold and use the camera.
