But besides that: It's obvious that your favourite is the 105/1.4 E
That has a bit more distortion and a strong bit more light falloff than the Sigma, it outresolves the dated sensor of your test camera. But in terms of bokeh fringing I would say, it doesn't deserve 5 stars - at f/2.8 the Sigma shows already less than the Nikon. This bokeh fringing is difficult to get rid off. If a portrait lens has to outresolve a 24 MP FF sensor I'm not that certain about - the 85/1.4 G doesn't and at times the reviewers were waxing some poetry around it.
The bokeh fringing of the 105 in my eyes is plain ugly at f/1.4
