Often, it is very hard to visualise the difference in sensor measurements merely by going through specifications. The photograph below should give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-T4 and S5.
To sum up, both of those cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-T4 with its smaller sensor will make getting shallow DOF more difficult and the Fujifilm X-T4 will produce extra detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively.
