If you're at MFD or close to it, optical performance of most lenses tend to fall apart.

Ehhh, I don't think that's the case these days. Quite a few m4/3 are very sharp at MFD.

It pretty much is the case for most lenses - some are better at handling it than others, but most do suffer to varying degrees at MFD. If you watch any lens review, it's a pretty common thing that can be observed even in high-end lenses.

The likes macro lenses are usually the opposite, which are designed to be at their sharpest at MFD. Some are super sharp throughout, but these are the exception rather than the norm.
