I've discovered that with the K-1 on tripod the majority of my pictures
are nowadays taken after composing in live view.
It is easier to select focus and has wider focus area. With the
possibility to adjust the angle of the screen it is easy enough to avoid
reflection of the screen.
And with focus stacking or HDR I use the remote control.
So I don't care much about the viewfinder except for pics of fast moving
animals, but for which faster AF is of much more importance.

I do wonder how that better viewfinder is going to work with the touch
screen display though.

The fixed LCD screen was planned from the get go. The camera is

I suspect Ricoh knows their market, and knows that their customer
already has an external battery charger.
A reviewer on Peta Pixel was very impressed with the viewfinder and
commented that developing it must of been a considerable effort. I
have no idea what it takes to build a better finder, but it may be
that Pentax is really serious about people wanting to use optical
finders vs EVF's and decided to build the camera around this feature.
Hopefully there is really a market segment motivated by super nice
view finders. The camera does look impressive.
