I am aware of the replaceable nibs, and I don’t have a problem with those. I have a Remarkable 2 and I use it practically every day. I replaced the nib with a titanium one and it feels very similar to a ballpoint pen writing on a clipboard.

The new marker requires charging. It is not compatible with the Remarkable 2 or other e-ink tablets like the Kindle Scribe. Look at the features on the store page, both the Marker and Marker+ talk about wireless charging.

Also, from their FAQ about the Marker:

Will other digital pens work on reMarkable Paper Pro? No. The new Markers have been custom-built for reMarkable Paper Pro’s Canvas Color display. Other digital pens, such as the Markers for reMarkable 2 or those developed by third parties, aren’t compatible with reMarkable Paper Pro. For more details, see our compatibility guide.

My bad, thanks for the correction!

Gives me another reason I'll be happily sticking with my RM2 and not considering an upgrade, though not 100% sure which I'd choose if buying new now (probably still the older one).

No worries. Sorry if I came off as combative.
You're fine, that hadn't occurred to me at all until you apologised :)
