 When I got the D800 I thought that I was getting a better camera than the D3s. This is only partially true but not for the reason of the ergonomic or extra MP.

The extra MP demand better technique but also storage starts to be an issue as does cpu when processing these large file.
The move to 36MP is a quantum leap.

I believe we have reached a technology plateau now and that in fact 12-24MP is probably a sweet spot.
Hence my purchase of the X100, XPro1 and now XE1. Maybe it is a 'fad' on my part but the 16MP are really all I want and need.
