I’ve seen the 6D MkII under AU$1500 several times in the last few months.
For astro the advantages would be mostly ergonomic. Smaller and lighter so easier on a tracker.

Variangle rear LCD would be the most useful improvement over a fixed LCD which must make focusing a painful experience.

Not sure about the 6D but RP has an incamera intervalometer.

As far as noise levels go - I am not sure but RP has the latest Digic 8 processor which usually means lowered noise but perhaps not.

RF mount lenses are not that expensive unless you are looking at the 50/1.2 or the 28-70 F2. The RF 35 1.8 seems fairly regular for a lens and the 24-105 F4 RF lens is not too bad. Perhaps though I am just used to Sony lens prices which are quite high.
