There is one thing the 20mm is NOT so good for and that is getting nice bokeh. Pancake lenses are not known for their "creamy" bokeh. It has nothing to do with the focal length.

As far as I know, a creamy bokeh is impossible to get with a wide-angle or a normal prime. I'm willing to change my mind if you have an example to share with us that shows the contrary...

Try any one of the native M4/3 Voigtländers. They can deliver beautiful bokeh.
