hi,

 

if you already own a 24/70 lens, you could find out what works best for you by taping the zoomring resp. on 35mm and 50mm,

personnally I own a 30mm 1.4 sigma(about the same focal lenght as the canon 35mm) and a 50mm 1.4 canon,

 

the 50mm is one of my favorite lenses and used very often, as it is designed as a standard lens, it can handle most situations,

It is designed as a standard lens... on full frame. On APS-C it can not "handle most situations" as it is not anywhere near a standard prime (80mm FF equivalent, a bit clumsy focal length).

just keep in mind the focussing barrel is very fragile...leave the lens hood on it all the time even when in the bag

 

my sigma 30mm on the other side is gathering dust most of the time, besides from the drawbacks of the lens,

I find it too wide or just not wide enough for most situations

That means that for YOU a standard prime is not ideal. It happens. But that does not make the 50mm a standard prime on APS-C, though... And personally 50mm does not work for me so much.
