Is the EF-S 55-250 that much better than the EF-M 55-200 to warrant the extra weight of lens and adaptor?

At least with the copies I had, the EF-M 55-200mm was noticeably softer at the long end than the 55-250mm STM. Not surprisingly, my 70-200mm f/4 IS L was better than the 55-250mm STM and my 70-200mm f/2.8 IS L II was better than the f/4 version. Besides sharpness, contrast and color improved as you went up in size/price of the lenses. My EF-M 55-200mm was purchased new on initial release and the other three lenses mentioned above were refurbs direct from Canon.
