@JoJu:
Of course the K-1 is not for those with a D810 and f/2.8 Nikkor zooms in their bags
Guess what: neither is the 5DMkIV. Specifically, no camera is made primarily for users with equivalent equipment from the competition; because making them switch is the hardest thing to do.
But, how about all the other people who don't have a high resolution FF DSLR and want one?
As for "reduced choices" - with APS-C, I had the unique option of using compact yet rugged cameras, with compact DA Limiteds. Despite Canon and Nikon having many more lenses, I didn't had that particular option.
What system has the most options, is not relevant. What matters, is which systems have the things you need (the problem here is to have a reasonable guess at your future needs)
Let's not confuse past with present; Zeiss pulled out of Pentax some time ago; so did Tamron, and Sigma barely releases a K-mount lens now and then.
We have something better than rumors: we have a public roadmap. 4 new D FA primes and a fisheye zoom (for 2017 "or later"), and a DA wide zoom (which is a bit late).
You know that, we told you about it in this very topic. You are ignoring information. You're repeating the same "arguments". Why? Because your "sun in your photographic galaxy" is another brand? FF and DSLRs are passing fads because Fujifilm says so? (careful... Olympus was claiming that other brands' DSLRs are "dinosaurs" until right before discontinuing their own "built for the future" 4/3)
