The center quality is breathtaking even at max. aperture whereas the outer image field is a bit soft here. From a real world perspective this is surely acceptable because you are rarely really after edge-to-edge sharpness when shooting at f/1.4.
That is true. However, if one regularly puts his subjects on side of the frame because of compositional reasons, he will want tack sharp corners.

Yes, it was bigger, heavier and more expensive so it's not really a surprise but once you got used to something good it's hard to go back.
