Yep, that's exactly what my A7S suffered from and the repair cost wasn't worth it, with no guarantees to not break again. I am not sure if that's changed in recent times.
For the high res sensor part, let me correct myself. I would say the photos weren't materially different just because of the resolution. I am sure there are a few moments where cropping isn't as horrendous 26 MP -> 14MP before where as now I'm at 40 MP -> 23MP. On a photo by photo comparison the photos are pretty close.
Evidently on Sony FF the IBIS unit is intended to not be locked in place, but I am a bit wary of wear and tear from it flopping around. I've had the body for less than a year and so far so good, but less than a year isn't very long...
Happy to hear your report on resolution not being a huge deal. I've been waffling about a 2x MP sensor (say.. like an X-H2s). I guess I've been shooting that resolution for a while and haven't ever had any image quality complaints.
