You really are blindly determined to dislike the Sigma lens, aren't you?? People can judge for themselves without your bias if they like. The Canon is slightly better toward the edges and significantly better at the extremes at f2.8. It's never been a problem in the 10,000 photographs I've taken with the lens. I don't take f2.8 landscapes. In short it "gets the job done" regardless of your inference.
