Halving the size of the pixels, then adding 4 together to make one, would
not necessarily make the noise better than a single small site.....

Second choice: halve the size of the photosites on the M and the MM sensors
(for 96 and 72 Mpx, respectively) to achieve image resolution in line with
the inherent resolution of the lens (esp the apo-Summicron). When the need
for minimal-noise low-light shooting outweighs the need for maximal
resolution, the software can be instructed to "bin" the photosites 2x2 for
the same resolution and low noise as the current sensors.
