>>3511573>>A rear element that is SMALLER than the sensor can STILL require a large bayonet depending on the angle of that cone.>This is false so long as the mount is wider than the sensor.No it's not. That you have too low of an IQ to mentally picture this is not my problem. It's a fact whether you like it or not.
And pic is related: the FE mount literally cuts into the corners of the sensor. So even by your own words there is a problem. The rear element can never recess to a point where those corners cut into the light cone OR the lens design has to be retrofocus like a DSLR.
>My argument is that light would not have hit the sensor anyway, since you changed the size of the image circle.Your argument is false and portrays a shit poor understanding of lens design.
