Sony's years-long early lead in mirrorless ILC technology will be almost impossible to overcome.

So what's your point? Of course Sony has outsold both Canon and Nikon. Sony has been marketing MILC's far, far longer than Canon and Nikon.

Highly doubtful. Nikon and Canon introduced their initial FF MILC offerings less than a year ago and they are already putting a sizable dent in Sony's sales. Canon is the title sponsor of the largest and most viewed sporting event in the world, the 2020 Olympics. They are also the largest supplier of photo equipment used during the games. I wonder what Canon will be introducing between now and the start of the games.
Canon and Nikon are 1 and 2 in overall digital camera sales. It's only a matter of time before they pass Sony in MILC sales also.

Keep dreaming, these are the actual sales number and if you check Amazon in the USA it is the same with the A7III outselling all other FF mirrorless cameras in spite of all the Nikon and Canon hype. In fact the A7III is the World's best selling Fullframe camera period (DSLR or Mirrorless). You can keep dreaming but the real sales numbers tell the real story.

And the next Sony releases due this year promise to increase the gap in the FF mirrorless market.

Keep dreaming about what?!
I take it you own a Sony full frame MILC. I guess that makes you smarter and more of a man than those who own Canon or Nikon. Guess what?! I don't care. Are you so insecure that you have to tell the UHH community how big a Sony fan boy you are!? I'm not sure I actually believe what you are saying since it appears your source is YouTube.
I don't own a full frame MILC and I have no intention of buying one any time in the near future. I'm quite pleased with the results from my Canon 6D, 5DIV and 5DSr.

I was a Canon and Nikon shooter for over 40 years fella, so know some facts here. I never said I was smarter, I just reported the real numbers and you can't handle the truth. As a pro I can afford whatever brand that works the best for my work, and right now that is Sony. There are reasons Canon and Nikon are struggling with their first generation FF mirrorless bodies and no amount of fanboyism can hide the issues as truthfully spelled out by J. Christina ( who by the way is a longtime Canon shooter). Tough to face facts for you I guess so you stoop to personal attacks. Very mature.
