The two lenses are hardly comparable.

Exactly.

But the real question is - if you could have one lens - would it be a creative lens - or something more like a really really good swiss army knife

You need to become clear that kind of photography interests you more.

You can think of other options.

The Viltrox 85/1.8 II is affordable and very good apart from the silly lens hood.

You can get a used 56/1.2 at a good price

Etc

Regards,

Martin
