An exciting new camera is of more than passing interest to this group because (and this is just my unscientific opinion) many here are photographers first, Pentaxians second. That is evidenced by the fact that so many own other brands along with their Pentaxes; some have even discarded their Pentaxes ~in toto~ and remain on the list for reasons other than their loyalty to the brand.
You of all people, Godfrey, who look beyond Pentax to satisfy your photographic needs, will understand that. If there's one thing that I've always liked about this list it's the love/hate relationship that so many seem to have with Pentax. No blindly spewing the company line, no "my camera maker right or wrong", it's more like, "here's what I want and if you don't make it I'll still love you but I will go elsewhere." There are very few measurebaters compared to other places; we're just people who like taking pictures, on whatever equipment is out there that suits our needs. That, I suppose, is why the latest Oly is of more than passing interest.
