LOL… Yes Yes … or maybe it is a combination of all. To some degree, we are all those three types.

Tuition and travel are the obvious avenues.

For an every day travel thing the X-E4 and 27mm is a more rational (which isn't the same as appealing) choice.

Now you give me another good combo to consider…

Why did you get rid of the 90mm? That is a nice all round focal length. The 135mm has an honourable history.

Yes, I just found that I didn’t  shoot 135mm FL as often. I owned the 135L when I had my canon SLR/DSLR system. Loved it for outdoors with the kids back then.
