why is a full frame Pentax such a holy grail?

Biggest advantage of FF for me was the fov. I have my own modest studio. Modest in size. It was built in the 35mm film era. APS-C made it to small. APS-C often dictates the use of 35mm because of it. Needless to say, being able to use 50mm and even 85mm for portraits was quite an improvement. And, even though I am currently using the A7R & Zeiss lenses, still a much cheaper solution then rebuilding my studio.

Frankly, to do my work, all I needed was the bigger sensor for the least cost as possible. All the other fancy modern features like blazing AF, ever increasing ISO performance, WR, etc, can be stolen for all I care. I only upgraded from 5D to A7r because my 5D was falling apart and the refurbished A7r was a total steal. (5D had ~475000 actuations!) So, for my professional work it certainly doesn't need "pitching it as a high-end model to professionals at a higher price point than what Pentaxians are used to". I do this work to make a buck, not to get rid of it as quickly as possible.
