Dustin Abbot states it succinctly enough in his reviewof the Sony version of this lens:

"...the F2.8 aperture will always have the light gathering capability of an F2.8 lens (regardless of whether attached to APS-C or Full Frame), meaning that the B070 has certain advantages over a full frame 24-105mm F4 lens."

He states it a little too succinctly by not explaining what those "certain advantages" are.

I'd ask you to explain, but there's no need to introduce dpreview's millionth equivalence debate.
