You are most likely right, but there are (at least) 2 important questions to ask.... can I justify/afford a completely new system to achieve better technical results (an expense of $35+++k). And does my personal style and output NEED these better results
In my case, and, of course, YMMV, the much considered answer is no.
I use a Hasselblad 500c with various lenses, and a Leaf Aptus 65 back.... the MFDB dates from about 2006. The resultant setup is still more precise than I need.

I am afraid to say that Hasselblad V lenses show their limitations on an S, native lenses are far better....

A really nice nteresting visual comparison shows the 2 cameras to be quite similar in styling, when viewed head-on.
Placement of user buttons is almost identical. More interesting is that the SL is actually larger than the GFX, but has the smaller sensor.
If I were in the MF market, the Leica S family might be higher on my short list. Hard to beat Leica glass....
Hassy V glass is pretty good too! (And I own it....)
