I think there are a lot of driving factors for purchasing cameras because many photographers have different needs. I'd argue that size is definitely one of the considerations for some photographers, but certainly not the be all and end all of needs. I do agree that not all APS-C cameras are built to keep size down, but the EF-M line does seem to be built with that in mind. I'm not really sure about where the EF-M series goes from here either, but for the time being it certainly has it's niche: the M50 seems to have sold very well and creates a good option for someone who wants a better than cellphone camera which is still reasonably small. I think there is definitely a niche for small cameras in people who travel quite a bit with photography as more of a hobby than a job, and for people who are just unable to carry a bulky or heavy camera for long periods.We all know size isn't the driving factor anymore. Look at the Panasonic S1. People are choosing it because it's full sized like a 5div instead of too small for people like an a7iii. The extra space allows for extra technology. Reality is APSC doesn't exist right now because if size difference, it's a different style of camera. Canon doesn't seem to be giving up on APSC, but I doubt they will Co tinue to support 3 different mounts for long.
