RF lenses are at a premium.  Actually the TS-E lenses are actually cheaper than the 15-35.  The Laowa's are much less expensive.

You could consider the EF 16-35/2.8 or f4 L.  Buying used would save a lot of money.

Also the Sigma 12-24 ART for EF.

Generally to line up architectural photos effectively one uses a tripod so IS is not necessary, or may even be detrimental.  f2.8 is not necessary unless the overall IQ is superior, which sometimes it is.

I use the 17 TS-E and the Laowa 12/2.8 Zero-D for the odd architectural interior.

So the 15-35 may be very nice, but avoidable.
