no, I am not fed up.

Some of the newer RF lenses offer good value to me. My R6 is worth what I paid for it every time I snap a pic of the fast moving grandkids.

The RF lenses are invariably far too expensive, the "cheap" ones are much more expensive than the EF equivalent and the performance is often not as good as the EF version.  Canon keep fitting the slow STM motors for video people thereby compromising the lens for people who want to use their camera for actual photography e.g. the EF 35mm f/2 seemingly beats the RF 35 /1.8 at everything except the mount.
