About to dive in: Is X-E3 + 35mm f1.4 a good 'single prime' camera choice?

Wait, what?

Wait, am I confused? I thought perspective was the distance from camera to subject. How does the lens focal length change this? It is my understanding that focal length differences do not cause distortion.

Keep in mind while it may give you a 35mm FOV on a Fuji sensor, is still has the perspective of a 23mm. I have a 24mm on a full frame Canon and would be the last lens I would choose for a portrait with the facial distortion it would give, other than perhaps a shot of man in his environment type of photograph.
