And the slow AF for the the X100 and X100S wasn’t too much of a problem because the vast majority of the buyers for those two were already film rangefinder enthusiasts who knew how to manual focus/zone focus.

I find it a little interesting that the X100V is blowing up the way it is given that the X100 line is known for its learning curve, but if it means more people learning how to manual focus/zone focus/manual exposure, I’m all for it.

The X100V's autofocus is good enough that you don't need to zone focus. I doubt most people use it to zone focus tbh.
You can shoot these cameras fully automatic still
