For me, the biggest advantage of the OVF is that I can see much more depth and contrast. So when I'm not interested in an accurate preview, I want to see a lot more than what I see later in the shot to be able to select the right perspective, aperture and the right spot to meter.
With an OVF camera I do pick much more by hand and am more determining the shot with single measurements.
I use an EVF camera when I have more time, which does not mean that time-critical things are not possible. The difference is, I either rely more on automatics, use more autofocus fields, face and eye recognition, measure the exposure with the whole perspective and only take influence with the exposure compensation or I even do everything manually, because it's easy to rely on a preview that's close to the result, use peaking etc.
These are two completely different ways of photography.
I would be really scared to do commissioned photography with an EVF camera. If I had to, I would operate it like my old DSLR, with center weighted or spot metering and only the center af field.
I really find mirrorless systems awesome and I'd like the simplicity that comes with it, especially since they are cheaper and I do not have to autofocus adjust lenses. I dream of not having a mechanical shutter on the camera anymore, but we are still at a point where there is enough excuse, especially in artificial light and with stobes.
