I would point out that it isn't particularly strange that Canon isn't #1 in FF ILC sales. They haven't had a high end release since 5D Mark IV, and a lot of people who want and can afford a flagship Canon (which is a lot of FF people), have purchased at least one 1DXII and/or 5D Mark IV.

Except Canon was #1 in FF ILC sales for the whole year of 2017. Sony was #2 for only two months. Nikon was #1 for only one month.

Right, I should have been clear: It's not surprising that they weren't first for a couple of months, where Nikon and Sony both released new FF flagships.

At some point, D850 and A7RIII sales will taper, because those most eager to buy one will have done so.

Ok. And I do agree with your points.
