It is comforting to know that there is such a plethora of photographers out there whose creativity and expertise are so extraordinary that the images they capture are dependent on utilizing the incremental capabilities of a full size sensor.

For those that are unsure, buy both and just nod in agreement with everybody.

#10 is not a myth. Ansel Adams would no doubt have gone to a medium format digital camera. He would have demanded a camera that has a 50-100MP sensor. Look at people like Annie Leibovitz. She uses a Nikon D810 and a Hasselblad with a 100MP back.

I own both a 7D Mk ii and a 5D Mk iv. I have shot the same scene on many occasions with both cameras/same lens and often there is a noticeable difference in the noise (skies, especially). I've read some pretty reputable photographers also make that observation (Moose Peterson, for one). So I suspect #1 is not a myth, although it may not hold for all brands, all models, etc.
I also think there is some truth to #11. For example, if you are shooting a macro shot and the subject fills the full frame image, you would have to be farther away from the subject to fit the same subject in a crop sensor frame. The closer you are to the subject, the shallower the DOF, and vice versa. That's why I often choose my 7D for macro, because of the slightly better DOF.

Amusing in that Crop and Full Frame are roughly the same size compared to a medium format sensor. And all 12 items apply eve more to medium format when compared to FF/Crop sensor size.

Very on-topic. We can just add your myths to the list !
