Ideas about non Leica primes for SL2?

Well no, not really. With wide angles you won't get the same performance of a M camera, there are a few topics here on the forum on how the 21 SEM and other wides are more soft in the corners when shot on a SL2 vs a M10R.

I don't think they meant it was designed to equal an M sensor, but indeed the SL sensors are optimized as much as they can be for M (microlens design specifically). Of course the increased cover glass thickness of the SL sensors hurts M performance. It also depends on the lens. The more recently-designed 28 Lux-M performed as well or better on my SL2-S compared to my M10M. The BSI nature of the SL2-S sensor also helps, so some M lenses you read about having mediocre performance on the SL2 may perform better on the SL2-S.
