Not so much the size, I just like the simplicity. I find that the MX is one of those cameras that does what I want very well, and for everything else it just gets out of the way.
The LX is infinitely capable, it’s just very rare that I actually use those capabilities.

If it makes you feel any better, the A50/f1.2 isn’t any better than the M50/f1.4 at any of the apertures they share, and f1.2 isn’t
really much faster than f1.4 in practice. Assuming you do decide to get an f1.2 though, go with the K version. It’s cheaper and better made than the A version, optically identical, and you can’t use the A setting on an MX or LX anyway...
M100/f2.8 is an underrated gem. Great lens.
