What's so special about the camera?

Actually, it's not much. But it's really compact. It features a 20MP mFT sensor and offers some useful computational photography tricks. Despite that, it's probably the most disliked mFT camera; when it was released, it didn’t receive much love.
I bought it because I found a good deal £320 with the kit lens, which I can probably sell for £80–100. I wanted a relatively inexpensive camera to keep in the car, paired with a small zoom lens (like the 12–32mm) for street photography.
I could’ve used my GM5, but that camera is now considerably more valuable than the G100 (I can sell it for £600 easily). It also has an older 16MP sensor, fewer control dials, and a fixed screen. I’ll keep the GM5 as a collector’s item and use the G100 instead. -

Does anyone not "see" what a great street image this is 🤔

No, you're right. It's excellent indeed!

No offence meant, but a B&W photo of a man riding a bicyle on what looks like the south side of Trafalgar Square with an out of focus background does nothing at all for me.

Back before I had a decent camera in my cell phone, bought a G100 with kit lens to use for recording things on site. I had a lot of fun with this little camera, and it led me to ditch my heavy DSLR, to buy into the M43 system with an EM5 + lenses.
A simple little camera like this can be quite liberating.
