I somehow think this is different. The larger lens mount might allow for a rectangular, larger format sensor, I think the very short sensor to Flange distance is to reverse the trend of some users who use Nikkor lenses on 'other makes' such as the FF Sony. With DX, FX and MF sensors as options in the same style body, which can also use the F Mount would be a clever move on Nikons part given they don't have an MF body as such. It could open up a big opportunity, given the prices of MF bodies.
I see both types of camera co-existing They both have strengths and weaknesses. If this lives up to the hype it's going to be something special.
