I do usually shoot mechanical. So my experience is skewed towards mechanical. I do occasionally shoot electronic, but when I do I am trying to time specific moments and shooting in bursts.

The camnostic article had 124 frames before hitting a stutter with the R5 and Sandisk 512 GB card at 12fps (mechanical H+). Bryan had similar, but slightly higher, results on a different card. So it is possible, I just haven’t had a lynx walking down a road toward me yet .

I am pretty sure you use Sandisk 512 cards as well. Camnostic’s test had ~310 images in 30 seconds in e-shutter mode. The best cards were around 340. So not much of an improvement to the fastest cards. But then the Sandisk 128, which is my other card, was “only” around 260 in 30 secs. So there can be a difference if you need this type of performance.
