They are a bit smaller but, to me, not that much of a difference when I compare my old Olympus M43 setup to my current Fuji X ones. Haven't really experienced any portability issues (also tend to carry the camera + 3 lenses when travel

Fair share? Why don't you focus on understanding why you pay so much, where the money goes, and other aspects that allow companies to absolutely fleece you? After the data collection you can figure out how you are being exploited. You
