Carlos,
Yes very true, but when I need a leaf shutter, with it's higher shutter
speed synchro, I
use a Hasselblad or a Rollei TLR.
The Rollei 35 had to make too many compromises to be used quickly, that
I had to
give up on them. Though I must admit that the 40mm f2.8 Sonnar was a
fantastic lens,
every bit as good as the 40mm Leitz Summicron.

The Rollei 35 has a clear advantage on the Leica CL
regarding flash use, whilst the Leica CL has 1/60 flash sync only, the
Rollei 35 can synchronize the flash at any shutter speed, it allows a
wide area for creative shots playing with the exposure for the
background, f.e. subjects in movement to get some specials effects.
The Rollei 35 becomes a regular 35mm cameras about ergonomics with the
hot shoe adapter and you can use almost any flash unit.

Carlos,
Been there, done that, over 20 years ago. Unwieldy setup, at best a FPITA.
It
irritated me so much that I traded all my Rollei 35s for Leica CLs.
