pictures I saw with S 16-50 suggests big corner sharpness stop down f2.8 at 16mm. much better at f4. 50mm is weakest but does mean it is not excellent. just that other focal size of zoom range is extremely sharp at center at wide open. in agreement that lens does not give much credit that it deserve.

between 18-55 kit and 20-50 kit, I like 20-50 sharpness but I used 18-55 more often. AF speed and OIS are just very useful. if only 20-50 is fast AF, I use it permanently already over 18-55.
