That logic does not take into account zooming with your feet, which is nearly always an option.

Ah, the feet.

For me that logic doesn't work as perspective is always determined by where you stand, then next selecting the right focal length to get the desired framing.

Plus of course many times when travelling, the "zoom with feet" just does not work as I'd either be in the middle of crazy traffic or standing in crocodile infested water.
