I would consider buying the 80mm macro over the 90/2 for close focusing and macro capabilities and OIS.  OTOH, there are plenty of used 90/2 lenses on sale right now.

I got the 90/2 as soon as it came out because of my love of the Canon 135/2L.

If I were to do things over, I would get the 50-140/2.8 instead of the 90/2.  I would get the 80 macro before or after buying the 50-140, depending on need.

I personally like the results I get from the 56/1.2 more than what I was getting with the 50/2 I rented.  But, the 56/1.2 focus slower than the 50/2 and I agree that buying the 23/2, 35/2, and 50/2 in silver would be fashionable.

All of the light weight primes really works well with the X-T20.
