It makes no sense to buy both RF 24-70L f2.8 and RF 28-70L f2 lenses. The only reason would be to collect them both.

The better of the two is the f2 model, which I have. The f2.8 is a great lens too, but the f2 is more magical and more flexible of the two for its f2 aperture.

I held the f2 during a 2 week Paris trip, averaging 10 miles per day walking, and I did not find the lens too heavy, nor too big.  And it balances perfectly on the body if one knows how to hold that kit: from the belly of the lens.

You cannot go wrong with either, however, to own both smacks of hardware collector/vanity sensibilities.
