When I went <to London last week I carried with me a mid-1950s collapsible 50mm Summicron, <which I promptly put on the M7 in the shop. I do not know of any other camera <system where you can put an almost-50 year old lens on a 2002 model. Natham I can, but I don't, fit my Nikkor 17-35mm f1:2.8 AFS in my 1959 Nikon F and it works. Metering stop down. I can, but I don't, use my 1965 Nikkor Micro 55mm f1:3.5 in my F4 and it works. Leica is great but it's not sole.
