Yeah, now that you mention it, my Rebel-TI and Sigma SA-7 also had similar ease of loading. I stopped using those cameras many years ago, but kept the stylus as my 'walking-around' camera (always with me). Now I need to find a replacement. I guess. I kind of didn't use it all that much in the past few years except as a backup (or alternate film) camera.

The easiest to load IME was the olympus stylus epic. You just had to drape the leader across the take-up spool and close the back . I had two, one the autowind died, and the replacement I lost quite recently (the loss tempered by worsening and irreparable light leaks from around the lens mount).

Is that by design or is something a bit broken?

Yes and I wish I had one (or any film RF with a fast lens) -- unfortunately they all seem to be pricey now. Dunno if I'd bother with concert shooting though.
I can remember when they'd all be waving bic lighters, well before smartphones came along.
