Miro, you personal opinion doesn't reflect the reality, that nearly all existing DSLR lenses can be used with the adapter. It's no coincidence that this device is available right from the beginning - something Sopny had not and Fuji can only dream of as there were no FF or APS-C lenses around, they had to build everything from scratch. This leads to the well known gaps in Fuji eco-system.
And instead going the very long way and build a complete new system, before coming up with some special things which will face more competition in the future, it's a suprisingly smart move from Nikon to come up with a yummy AF lens which other manufacturers don't offer, but apparently some people would sell their grandma for (probably they will have to sell her and two arms and two legs for the lens - but it's availalbe, while a 33/1.0 is still a wet dream for Fuji fanboys for a long while).
One can argue about the fundaments of a MILC system. I see the fundaments in two bodies. three, soon four genuine lenses and 5 dozen adaptable genuine lenses plus all available third party lenses. All new lens designs like the long 180-400, 300 and 500 PF were for sure developed for two mounts. If Sigma can do mount conversions for one brand to another, I don't see a reason why Nikon can't do that with all the new E lenses.
And Fuji can prepare it's way into insignificance. After years and years of development they still need to rely on religious fanboys, searching desperately for any Pro using Fuji just to hide the fact that no Pro is using Fuji cameras without one or two backup systems.
"The majority looking into new camera is existing are DSLR users" - first, that sentence would make some sense as "The majority looking into the new cameras are DSLR users" and second, what's the big news of this statement? DSLR users age with our systems, some like yourself are still using old or elder models - which people should look into new MILC systems? The smartphone users sending gazillion of their stamp-size pictures into timelines, feeds and what else? No, these people just recognize a big camera and then conclude about the owner's photographoc abilities...
