I can't speak to Ming T, as I don't read his blog, however from what has been posted on other sites, he is a Hasselblad ambassador, privy to early releases of their products and thus I read his bias as pro Hasselblad. Period. I don't blame him either. But there are plenty of short comings to the X1D IMO that seem to have been overlooked by him.
I personally don't find current Fuji color spaces provided by either LR or C1 to be over saturated. Fuji provides a series of Film profiles, that can be applied in camera to jpgs, which are to represent their old classic films, like Provia, Chrome etc. These can be applied in LR however they are Adobe attempts to obtaining the similar in camera effect done by Fuji. I don't use them. I rely on the base color profile either in C1 or LR and then work from there and so far I have been pleased with the Fuji images, as have thousands of other photographers. These base profiles work for my style of work.
As for the comments on the Fuji blocking highlights, et all, again, Fuji would have to go out of their way to do this. The chip being used here is the same one that dates back to 2014 and Phase One IQ250, its not any different. The range of that chip always has been impressive. This has been shown by the few photographers that have received X1D's and from the thousands of photographers that have owned or shot with a IQ250, 150 or 350 and or the Hasselblad 50c. All again share the same chip, and all have provided excellent results in overall dynamic range, wonderful highlight recovery and or shadow push with amazing color.
My only concern with the Fuji GFX was that Fuji would attempt to use X-Trans on it, and they did not. In the long run I feel this will be a huge asset to the camera as the x-trans tech is not fully understood by most raw converters and thus they provide a less than stellar end result. Exceptions to this would be C1, however C1 most likely will not support the GFX due to P1's continued blinder approach to other MF platforms.
The color of both of these cameras will be excellent, mainly due to Phocus on the Hasselblad and LR, or Iridient provided profiles. Don't count too much on Fuji's relationship with Silkypix for a useable profile. I expect to see the Phocus profile to the X1D as closer to perfect based on Hasselblad's previous color production on their other products. The Fuji color will possibly not be as perfect but for most it will be close enough and if exact color is needed then a custom color profile could be developed and used. LR allows you to load a custom camera profile so should ACR and tools are out there to develop one.
For me the decision is much more based on the technology delivery on the camera, as I prefer the pixel depth of both the EVF and LCD on the Fuji, the fact that Fuji found a way to deliver both EFC and ES on a sensor that no one else has been able to, the ability to tilt the LCD to allow for better control of low level work, macro work and perspective control, a remote port, and a focal plane shutter which allows for a lot more non Fuji lens support over time.
However if it's all about color and it being totally exact, I guess the X1D would still have to get the better vote in that regard.
Hopefully also Fuji has a more informed product planning process and they will be able to start delivery of their product in the late Feb 2017 time frame.
