To revisit your food comparison, you consider yourself a gourmet above the fastfood crowd. You have higher standards, and X-Trans doesn't meet them. X-Trans is at fault for getting only "usable" results, and you want something better.
I think there's nothing wrong with that, but if your IQ standards are indeed higher than mine (or "most people" – basically, you are saying most people can't see or don't care about the difference), and X-Trans is to blame for Fuji not meeting these higher standards, you should look somewhere else (assuming that you aren't inclined to masochism). Plenty of choices out there, because except for Sigma, pretty much everybody is using Bayer.
It's contradictory to say that your IQ standards are higher than most others and at the same time saying that IQ isn't that important in the whole picture of things and that the X-Trans sensor is fine. Especially since you also say that X-Trans is at fault.
