Funny that there have been 1000ths of photographers able to make great images with 85m lenses on Canon DSLRs, Toni. Including a much faster 85mm f1.2.
I much prefer OVFs (DSLRs over mirrorless/live view anything) myself. I am sure I would also prefer a Pentax DSLR over a Sony/Canon/Fuji mirrorless camera, in general.
The 7D mk II has had its fair share of criticism where AF accuracy with certain lenses in concerned, and certainly can't be called a camera "that has one of the best AF systems". Apparently, you yourself have found that it will need calibration with the EF 85mm f1.8 USM because of its optical flaws in combination with which wavelengths the 7D mk II's AF module "sees".
Just like others may hope that Pentax will continue to (also?) produce DSLRs, I hope that Canon also continues to develop DSLRs, next to their video and mirrorless photo stuff.
