I bought a EF-M 18-150, after I think one day with it I concluded I would probably never use my RF 24-105 stm again so I sold it with my EOS RP and the reason is quite simple:

The EOS M system gives me great corners for every lens at min focal.

The downside of this decision is that I probably have to get RF 24-105L or make the decision that I am going to focus on getting the f/2.8 trinity for my R.

Also I have the discomforting feeling that R + whatever L is not going to give me the corner performance of M6 + whatever EF-M.

29mm around f/5.6 no sharp corners with RF L lenses?

That's a bold statement.

Look, 24mm wide open, some design choices could have been made, but 24mm wide open is not the same as 18mm f/3.5 on crop.

If corner sharpness is that important to you, you might have a look at the EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L, the Sigma 24-35mm f/2.0 Art, the Sigma 28mm f/1.4 Art.

If weight is a concern there are also the 24&28mm f/2.8 IS USM lenses.  These might be not as good as the other ones, but still not bad, especially stopped down a bit.

45 is more than enough, but 500.000 isn't
