Correct you are.
The 50 and 75 combination is IME distracting and one of the reasons M2s and
M4s remain so popular amongst users.
Tom A's elegant black tape based 24 frameline solution works for me better
than the mused-upon in-finder lines...
BTW the Hexar RF with a near identical VF magnification to the .58 M6 has
the 135 lines with the 35 ones.
