A standard zoom is only a work horse for people who document things. The portrait zooms (70-200mm) have a wider application. For professional artistic portrait photographers, often primes are the tools of choice. Like the Canon 85mm f1.2/1.4 and that 135mm f2. And of course, the Zeiss lenses (milvus/Otus), the Sigma art lenses and now even the Samyang 85mm f1.2.
If one can handle a 70-200mm f2.8, one can handle the modern heavy primes too. Obviously, a personal choice.
