So a 17/18-50/55mm f2.8 lens just always makes more sense. You have f2.8 in the portrait range, and will have f4 at the short tele range (with the Canon 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM, 70-200 f4 L's).[/quote]

No they don't. Again it comes down to intended uses. The f/2.8 zooms are not that wide, nor that long. In my example earlier, the f/2.8 itself is even a disadvantage and the extra zoom range is more important. If you're going to trade away zoom range for aperture, primes start looking more attractive.
