Some people like Vanilla Ice Cream some like Chocolate. Personal preference. (Of course there are those that prefer Strawberry, there is no one right answer.)
No need to justify your preference, or convince others you are correct, just use the camera you love.
Heck, I often just use my iPhone 14 Pro, and get excellent photos with it.
For me, I switched from a full DSLR with its mirror (a Nikon D850 and D750) to a mirrorless (Nikon Zfc).
For me it was about the weight. Now that I am retired and travelling more, caring a large camera with its large lens left my back aching at the end of the day. So the DX format Zfc with lighter lenses will save my back.
As for image quality. I have Topaz Photo AI, which can fix a lot of the noise and size issues -- exceedling well. Plus a few other helpful plug-ins such as Luminar Neo and the NIK collection. Regardless of cameras, I am happy with my photographic results.
My only decision I have left to make is: Do I keep the D850 and D750, for special occasions, or just use the Zfc which has excellent image quality. (If I do decide to sell off the D850 and D750, I need to figure out where the best place to sell them.)
