We'd still have a nice digital rangefinder body, hopefully nice high ISO performance and 28/35/50/90mm equivalent FL Leica lenses. Maybe a nice DX ultrawide if we ask real nice. Yippee! While not the FF-works-great-with-all-M-lenses holy grail, and while still a niche product, I imagine Leica would sell a boatload of the things compared to current MP sales.
