OK, I’m going to revise my figure to somewhere between 1/4-1/2

Expeed 7 can easily handle these specs, the question is the sensor. With smaller market of ILCs, they can't fab a new sensor every couple of years.

Not an odd request at all! These days it does seem that the preference is to go with ProresRAW or BRAW in order to get file sizes under control though, and after looking at the Sigma FP I can understand this trend because WOW, those data rates are just stratospheric! One thing I'd dearly love for the manufacturers to offer is downsampled Cinema DNGs. So, if you had a 6K sensor then you could choose 4K, 3K, 2.5K 2K, 1080p resolutions that were still the full sensor width. This gives much of the benefits of both worlds. Are you talking about internal storage like a small internal SSD inside the camera? I have definitely noticed that many cameras record externally to SSD at much higher data rates than their card slots are able to muster. Perhaps, and I know I'm being optimistic now, an open standard might emerge where NVME shaped SSDs in a slimline hard-case could be used as removable media via a slot. Any camera that supported it would have the benefit of not requiring a fragile lump+cable to be attached, but the user would get the benefit of a fast drive.

Instagram I thought it was a word you had made up but I Googled it. I don’t think they can bungle the Z6iii though. Not everyone will be happy and the reality of it when it’s revealed might not even be enough for me, but I suspect on their current form, Nikon will not enshittificate this.

The idea that justice is even common, let alone the norm, is a fantasy. The world is a place where people can get away with almost anything, provided they were lucky, or smart, or had help, or were in a situation that condoned it. My approach to staying sane is to try and view injustices as reality, and try and focus on what happens next. If you got robbed one day and you spent the rest of your life being angry and sour about it, your attitude would cost you a lot more than what you lost.

TC, full HDMI, internal NRaw and Prores, full sensor 4K60p, good battery life and no problems with overheating, with solid Ibis and AF, plus nice ergos and built, Z6/7/Z8 size, around 3000 Euro, that would make it a dream camera! Too good to be true or not? 🙂
