Much bolder Bokeh:
Another important consideration is that the EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM lens was given a bright aperture to enable useful bokeh. So having set your 15-45mm lens to approximately 32mm, you'd end up with an aperture of around f/5.6-6.3.

32mm @ f/1.4 - @ f/1.4 + ISO 320 - Marzipan Cake

Yeah, the bokeh was bolder, but is bolder bokeh more artistic in every case? In my opinion less bokeh was better in this case, and therefor IS over a larger aperture.  I don't have any arguments for this as it is a matter of taste...

If your facts are different we could save the peace just by calling it copy to copy variation.
