Eric-

I think the same analogy can be made to using a tripod. Surely you take more care when you go to the trouble of setting up a tripod, leveling the camera, adjusting perspective with a PC lens...

At the other end of the spectrum is the ability to just GRAB shots...you can do it with either an x100 or a D3 with heavy lens but it's easier to be there at f8 with the fuji.

That all said, I find myself using the fuji's in many more ways than I was originally. I use the D3 or D800 for architecture shots and fast moving dogs but that's about it...oh yeah...the D300s with tele for wildlife or sports :-)

But I love my Fuji's... using them every day and not feeling any less serious...more like I've jumped in a time warp back to the 60's (and I'm not using the one zoom I bought and stored on the shelf...just primes and only carry one with me).

It's all in your (my) head !!!

Feel the same about my Fuji XT1 with 18-55 I seem to use it most. I am debating whether to get a XE2 or wait for the XE3 in 2015. I want a camera I can use and fire remotely. I can use my triggertrap with the XE1 but it is more to carry around.
