The K-1 is superb at low light photography, in fact one of the best I use.
But it isn't fair to say that the list provided had no images, because the technical shots were shown that could be compared to show the results at all ISO values.
It's also not fair to say that EPZ are "solely driven by commercial pressures and advertising." I do plenty of reviews for them and there is no pressure of any kind involved.
I've noticed as well it was a 2018 list, so the K-1 (released 2016) wouldn't be on it anyway, although arguably the K-1 II (released 201 should be. I presume the other cameras listed are all 2018 releases.
Could you have an inside word here?

hopeful that we'll one day see an APS-C compact from Ricoh-Pentax that couples the amazing DA21mm to a GR-style body

When to comes to commercial use or student photography it can be quite pricey.
In case that link above becomes broken the general gist for private photographers is,
"We get many requests from tourists, train enthusiasts, budding photographers and customers 'passing through' a station who may want to take photographs for their own personal use. We agree that this is acceptable, at the station's discretion, as long as additional camera equipment (including flash and tripods) is not used.
"However, images clearly promoting the London Underground brand/logos must not be published or broadcast without our permission ahead of time. Also, people filming or taking photographs for their own purposes on TfL's network are responsible for ensuring they comply with the requirements of privacy and data protection legislation. "

No sign of a tripod mount, but the slower lenses didn't usually have one anyhow.
Tokina price: $899, Pentax price, your guess is as good as anyone else's! Weather sealing? If it has Pentax may use it as a justification to add a few more £££ to the list price.
