14-140mm II is a high quality lens. It has some weaknesses:

-Vibrating OIS in hand held video recording.

-looses focus in zooming (video).

-not enough smooth zoom for video.

-makes often a big green flare ball when shooting so that sun is in image.

-sharpness falls rapidly with smaller apertures.

Once again I have to say that I have none of those issues. I shot quite a few short videos the other week and specifically looked for the jitter you continually mention that your lens suffers from, and I do not see it on mine.

Its the first time I've seen the other points mentioned, although I have seen one or two others mention video jitter.

You really do not like this lens, that much is obvious. It should be pointed out that you are one of a very small minority indeed.
