Pentax is objectively correct about lens-body design.

Put the autofocus motor and image stabilization inside the body instead of in the lens. It opens up the creation of some truly compact lens design once you incorporate floating apertures. Pic rel is a 35-105 f/4-5.6 FULL FRAME lens.

It's smaller than most mirrorless 18-50 aps-c kit lenses. The autofocus speed/accuracy you sacrifice by doing so is well into the range of diminishing returns for 98% of photographers

It's amazing how correct one company can be about camera design and really highlights the legendary fumble in marketing Pentax has made.
