For me bulk and weight and how attention grabbing the kit is are probably the major considerations and TBH more important to me than optical performance or even price. This is why I'm drawn to things like the Pergear 35mm f1.4, TTArtisan 50mm f2, Syoptic 50mm f1.1 and the various Voigtlanders I have as performance stopped down will be at least adequate with the only question marks being things which only affect certain pictures, like wild bokeh wide open, flare, ghosting and ca.
Pergear, wide open at "f1.4" it stands up well to pixel peeping in the central area at least.

Stopped down I have no real issues with it unless flare is an issue.

I know not many people would consider lenses of this quality but they're so small and light. The Voigtlander 35mm f1.2 I've just bought is possibly the best 35mm I've ever used but even it is borderline too heavy for me whilst the Pergear is much smaller and lighter and gives reasonable performance even if its stated aperture values are way off.
