I think it's not an issue at 14mm

I rarely use the 7-14 at 14mm. On my last trip I found just one image (out of 188) that was taken with the 7-14 at 14mm (and it was at f/3.5).

I believe the field curvature is not an issue at 14mm the way it is at 7mm. However, you have to consider that DoF is smaller at 14mm than at 7mm so you are more likely to need to stop down to get enough DoF.

14mm f/3.5
