Great article. I use cameras that feel right in my hand or have easy menu structures, or have lenses not available from other manufacturers. All this crap about the "Leica look" is just post hoc purchase justification (and I'm not knocking Leica - I have 6 of their film cameras and 3 of their digital cameras, but I certainly don't buy the digital Leica's for the so-called "Leica Look").
Sony fabricates most of the sensors out there for digital cameras - so much of the difference is camera firmware and more or less changeable with the raw files - as you have discovered and reported to us
Really enjoyed this! The most significant change for me was going to a 40 MP sensor (Sony A7Rii) because I can use a 24mm prime and post crop - within creative limitations. Other than that I have created and sold images based on everything from my iPhone 5, OM2S, Leica type 109, to an array of Sony full and APSC frames. I am going through a GAS phase however because Sony finally! decided to put the aperture ring back onto the barrel of the lens where God intended it to be. Thanks for the inspiration you provide.

Note I did choose 3 different sensor manufacturers... Sony, some strange company that did the M10 sensor (I forget who), and Canon...
