The weight differnce (and I guess size too) to current mirrorless (fuji, sony etc...) is smaller than most people think. If you put the same performance level glass on it, the gain is about 10% or so. I recently watched Thomas Heatons video where he wanted to buy a fuji system to reduce the weight of his 5DIV. As he had all items in his shopping cart, he calulated the weight before clicking the order button. The difference was so small that he did not want to sacrifice so much money and FF image quality for that bit of weight. He came to the conclusion that it wasn't worth it and he could save much more weight in other stuff he carries around.
However, a GR with small changable lenses would be tempting if it was pocketable and really light while having very good image quality. But I don't know whether that is even feasable in terms of technology.
