You can certainly get cameras at a better price/performance level. So on a pure financial scale, they are difficult to justificat. But a M is unequaled by definition - it is the only digital rangefinder in production. Not to rave too much about rangefinder photography by itself, that means a very compact full-frame camera (roughly A7 size), but where it stands out is the tiny lenses. Even µFT struggles to match the M lens sizes. And at minimum for my back, lens size matters a lot. A M camera with 3 lenses fits into an absolutely tiny bag.
