There are a significant number of lenses, even kit lenses, of different makers, that give very good results with good light at f/5.6 or whatever is their sweet spot.

There are very few 10x zooms of any format that perform as well as this one.

However, if you want, for whatever reason f/2.8, they will not give you that. That is why you pay more, and have more bulk and weight!

Uh, yeah, I know that. I never said I was getting rid of my fast zooms. I need them for portraiture and low-light event work. My 14-140 is for travel and hiking, as I mentioned before.
