Well, I know the MX preceded the LX (were they ever marketed concurrently? I don't think so, and I'm too lazy to look), but the MX would have made a great all-mechanical back up to the LX for a PJ or someone in the field.
Much as it was claimed that many who used whatever big Nikon F was current, would stick an FM or FM2 body in their bag as a back up.
