The respected manufacturer Fujifilm could consider using such powerful telephoto lenses not only for its cropped format, but also for its medium format GFX.
So they already have a 500mm f5.6 lens on the GFX. And there is no point in using crop lenses on medium format, they simply won't cover it.
Both 500mm versions have very similar optical schemes (21 lenses in 14 components). And the weight and dimensions are almost the same. And the large format is a bit more expensive (3500 vs 3000 USD).
This is pure marketing. Render to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's.
