You would not need exposure comp In manual, as you would simply adjust shutter speed to taste.
PS
Otherwise, you would be over riding your own setting.
Sometimes it may be an advantage to keep the shutter speed and aperture you want and adjust the exposure by varying the ISO. For example when shooting in low light you may not want to shoot with a wide open aperture which is what the camera would probably select in shutter priority and you may not want to shoot at a low shutter speed which the camera would probably choose when shooting in aperture priority. The answer is to switch to manual mode and select you appropriate aperture and shutter settings and let the ISO float up and down but with the ability to dial in compensation as you see fit for changing lighting conditions or to ettr.
I find this a big advantage but I've never been able to do this on any Panasonic before the GX9. I don't know which SLR style bodies allow this but certainly my G7 didn't and neither did my GX1, G1, GX7 or GX80.
If you see a need for this feature you can come to love it.
