fuji 14 and the 60 are the 2 most underrated/best value lenses in its whole lineup for IQ/rendering.

They both kind of fell under the radar after the 16 1.4 and 56 1.2 came out.

I mean if you need 1.4/1.2...by all means get those, but if you don't, I don't think you're missing out on anything.

I have the 60mm and had the chance to use it a couple of weeks ago to take a portrait for a Governor's candidate and was blown away by its IQ, it is a great lens!

I’d second the 60mm fantastic lens. The only thing letting it down is the slow focus. Is is definitely one of my favourites.

ive heard similar about the 14 which is on my list alongside the 35 f1.8

The 60, being a macro lens (or macroish for people who need more magnification), has slower AF. Considering it's actually quite snappy on X-T3 and newer cameras I think had it been released now, as opposed to when Fujis were slower, the general attitude towards it would be different.
