reason is with best lenses, I can clearly see the lens is resolving smoothly but the lack of Mp is causing pixelation at the limits of the lens resolution. It would need four or more times the 6Mp to make them less visible, maybe 60-100Mp on APS would still be visibly better overkill maybe, overkill, maybe not.

OTOH, as long as it is possible, let them race to increase color and dynamic range...
