Sony E is pretty much at the same point Canon EF-S has been for the past 18 years. You want mediocre zooms? You got them. you want expensive and mediocre zooms? You got them. You want sensible primes and top quality zooms? You go full frame. But again, people who only buy a camera based on specs along with a single bundled lens are happy. Same goes for EOS M, 95% of people who buy them are not interested in cameras to begin with, they are happy to own a Canon.

Agreed most EOS-M and lower end Canon APS-C buy nothing but the camera plus kit zoom, however in Canon APS-C golden days it was also used by many pros because full frame prices were prohibitive that's why in Canon and Nikon APS-C you will find a lot of decent lenses, even for Nikon for some time even their i flagship was APS-C like D2X
so you have some very decent Canikon APS-C lenses: Nikon 17-55f2.8, Nikon 16-85 , Nikon 18-105 and Nikon 12-24 are examples.
In Canon land you have 15-85 17-55f2.8IS 18-135thatb are very good performers without forgetting some very good third party offerings
Meanwhile for APS-C Sony offered good lenses in APS-C A mount, in E mount nothing really interesting aside 10-18 and to a lesser degree 18-135 the others are better suited for video, Sony 16-50 has noting good in it except size and quite handy range. So you can't compare a neglected sysyem like Sony E to Canon Efs or Nikon DX
