Does it even really matter?
As long as the market forces are still working the builder are content. All the manufacturer cares about is moving ahead. That DSLR was from past sales. A new camera has been sold is what counts. Loyalty to old tech/fashion/trends or fads is a business killer.

If that's the case then the lack of smiley faces 😉 makes one wonder. I'm not familiar with all the different characters and require these subtle hints.

"Some interesting stats on the winning World Press Photo 2019 photographs - over 70% of the photos were shot with Nikon/Canon full-frame DSLR cameras while only 4.4% were taken with a mirrorless camera (only 2.6% were taken with a Sony camera):"

Not surprising. Historically professionals have nearly always been the last to adopt new technology. Check the numbers five years from.

I use a mirrorless hybrid because I need to record video and stills in equal proportion. I carry one small bag, instead of the two big cases I used 10 years ago. If I covered action sports, BIF, or landscapes, I’d use an entirely different rig.

The only thing that is truly new is the EVF and even that is a refinement of the live view LCD technology. Mirror less is just that, something has been taken out of the camera but nothing truly new has been put in. 
Not quite true. I once went on for about eight pages here about all the new functionality available to mirrorless users.

Ha! Is that new functionality something that couldn't have been added to DSLRs? My point was that the only difference between them is the mirror. Squeezing the shutter release results in the same functional process with the only difference being that mirror movement. After the mirror ballet both follow the same script.
