An interesting but ultimately flawed point of view.
Pentax come up with the Q, and the K-01... when the choice of making a proper mirrorless camera system wasn't an option. Both were developed while Hoya was preparing to sell them to Ricoh.
The old full frame project was canceled because of the sensor, and the other camera using the same sensor (Contax) failed miserably.
Pentax has more FF K-mount lenses than the Sony FE.
Last but not least, going mirrorless - what you seems to think it's the "right" kind of camera - wouldn't solve any one of those points. On the contrary, on the lens side things would've been much more dire.
