I think you ought to try the SL or CL. Or if you have, you're trying a different one from me!

The EVF brightness varies with your exposure settings. I adjust my exposure settings to get the brightness I want, then check the histogram and blinkies to make sure there are no blown highlights. And I can see DoF in the EVF with a lens set at the taking aperture - which a M lens always is. (Focus magnification is still WYSIWYG: you're focusing off part of the sensor and that is the same focus as your image will end up with.)

If you want to define WYSIWYG as the view in the EVF being identical to what you will see on your monitor after downloading the raw file and converting, I can't argue with you. A more practical approach is to accept that what you see in the EVF (no mag, no peaking, no histogram) is an easy way to directly see the exposure, focus and depth of field - that's WYSIWYG enough for me - and it works - I do it.

I define WYSIWYG as "what you see is what you get". Which is what WYSIWYG stands for, since about three decades now. Extra display of information isnt WYSIWYG.

I get increasingly the impression that people claim that the EVF would be WYSIWYG mostly because they are clueless about what WYSIWYG even means.

I rest my case. 

I suspect most people don't have exactly the same rigorous definition as you. Or a fuzzier version of it. Or they understood exactly the point I was making in my original email.

I will leave such arguments about definitions, who polices them, and how relevant they are, to you.

what you see is a 4*3mm electronic piece of silicon. What you get is a piece of paper with pigment dried on it. WYSIWYG always has to be about some aspect of the thing unless it’s the thing itself (I want that rock; here, have it).
