Some people on internet are moaning about huge unrecoverable vignetting, but it is not an issue at all! The thing is, the angle of view of this lens is de-facto wider than should be for e.g. 24mm focal length and vignetting if therefore just a part of this additional frame space left there intentionally.
But why is a lens giving you the option not using the whole sensor surface in the first place? Especially if it's not covering the whole sensor at the wide end: Just DON NOT let a lens go to 22.whatevermm if it's specified to go to 24mm.
I think you misunderstand. It isn’t an “option.” The only way to recover a 24mm equivalent image from this lens is to shoot it at the wide end, where the optical FOV is something like 22mm with extreme vignetting so that only a 24mm equivalent center crop is usable. If you zoom in slightly to 25mm, you get optically something like 23mm with extreme vignetting so that only a 25mm equivalent crop is usable. And so on, until you zoom in enough that the vignetting is gone finally gone.
