That is the one thing that I am struggling with, the IQ from the X-T1 is superb but the viewfinder..... i don't know.

There is no doubt that the best clearest viewfinder is the FX camera.
The DX camera viewfinder is not quite as large and bright as the FX.

Similarly there are a range of 'qualities' in digital viewfinders. The Lumix viewfinder is noticeably better than the Fuji, for example...especially in lower interior lighting situations.

But I have yet to see one that is good enough not to diminish the viewing experience.

I realise that in all things there is invariably a compromise or trade off. Weight, handling, control arrangement, ease of use to name a few.

The Fuji ticks most of the boxes (especially the XT with its improved firmware) but using it under incandescent light it like going back to the dark ages,

As JK says, the next development must be the quality of the viewfinder's representation of the scene.
