While I respect your personal gear decisions
I find it difficult to understand why one would not want one's best camera 
with them.

I guess it comes down to what we're accustomed to.
Having carried an M every day since 1965
the M8 (god willing 9 some day)
certainly feels like the perfect "wear it all the time" camera
to me.
