I disagree. I suggest the ratio is always set by the flash-subject

We don't disagree, but you simply state the obvious. The question is how do
you decide the required fill-in-ratio without careful metering first, and
how do you know what *exosure* the camera will choose (even though this
will not affect the ratio)? The camera will meter like an OM-2, except that
you'll have an additional lightsource that can't be seen in the viewfinder.
If you're able to judge and control this within 1/3 stop even when the
background and subject have different brightness, then I'm very impressed.
But as always, just continue to do whatever works for *you*.
