FX3/FX30: Sony FX30 and FS700. Do I need both of them?

Hello. I have Sony FX30 and FS700 with Odyssey 7q+ recorder. Is there any reason to keep both cameras or should I rather sell FS700 and Odyssey?
 
I'd factor in:

How much can you get for a FS700 and Odyssey as we enter 2025? I'm guessing not much; at least, not enough to buy another reasonably good backup camera and recorder. Here are the prices on some completed eBay sales: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=Sony+FS700&_sacat=0&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1

Wouldn't it be nice to have a backup camera and recorder that you're familiar with, in case your FX30 breaks, gets lost, or gets stolen?

But if you also has a decent mirrorless (stills/hybrid) camera as a backup, better to get some money now rather than even less in a few months...

Sounds to me like you have an A & B cam. They can be pretty easily matched and your 700/7q combo isn't going to fetch much so why bother.
