If two camera bodies cost approximately the same, and I was going to
purchase one of them, I would always opt for the the one with the
larger physical sensor/larger megapixel combination.

If more is better, lets compare it with a 645D. It's a bigger sensor with more
resolution, therefore its better.

It's not an absolute. For the things that Godfrey does, the system
in the SLR market that works as well for someone like me other than
the top end of the Nikon and Canon ranges, which are extremely expensive.
I'll probably buy an E-5 sometime in the next 3-4 months.

standard would be even worst for m4/3...
I don't think so. With their 4/3-system, Olympus tried to break the
well-established Canikon APS-C duopolywith a new bayonet and a smaller
sensor. Desperate to say the least.
The 'micro-systems' arena is a different game, open to different ending.
Think
Micro-FourThirds is FourThirds revised for all electronic viewing
systems. That's all.
All electronic viewing systems are simply more effective for the size
of the format than optical reflex view finders. The shorter mount
register possible with an all electronic viewfinder is also a better
fit

major impact on sales or a negligible one. Some sale wars are won by a
better technology, but most are won by a better perception and spread

m4/3 has some sort of standard)

I've gotten great shots out of a Fuji disposable as well.
The question boils down to, what is likely to yield the better image?
