For some reason, it seems quite difficult for you to admit the sensor in the RP is crap.
It appears dpreview agrees with these finding as well. From their RP review:
"The exposure latitude test, where we lift the shadows in images shot at progressively lower exposures shows that the EOS RP's performance is behind that of the Sony a7 II, and looks to be behind the EOS M50, despite the latter's smaller sensor."
But I suppose these sources are wrong. How can Canon possibly produce a subpar sensor?
Did you actually take a look at what I wrote? Or are you just trolling along, here?

And then you go on blah blahing about base ISO again.
I suppose you don't care what the sources actually are about?
I have never said that the RP has a great sensor. If I have said something in relation to it, it is about how guys like you for some odd reason place way too much emphasis on the importance of a very high DR at base ISO.
Guys like you often come with fake examples of how they are able to lift shadows 3 stops and get great images that way without ever showing great images, and going past the fact that lifting shadows with a 7.5EV tonal curve to start with means at most 10.5EV in the image. That and that lifted shadows look weird/fake/distasteful almost always anyhow.
So, no, the RP does not have the best sensor in the world. And no, I never claimed anything resembling that. I just claim that the nonsensical hammering on high DR is just that, nonsensical.
Can I lift shadows with ISO100 RAW files from my EOS 6D? Yes of course I can. Using the DXO standard of DR, I still have 4.5 stops of DR past the standard tonal curve. Do I want to? No, lifting shadows is a strange hobby that is not one of mine.
Nor have I claimed that the EOS RP is a nice camera. I have often expressed my dislike for it for one main reason: the lack of full mechanical shutter, which DOES impact short exposure time images (it messes up bokeh, just like other cameras using electronic 1st shutter curtain. So I'd pass on the RP for that specific reason. But I would not pass on the EOS 6D mk II for its sensor, it does fine.
