From the reviews I've read, the f/1.8 is not it !

This is the problem with reviews and why you need to try lenses for yourself.

I find that a lot of reviewers are so far down the technical rabbit hole, and feeling like they need to say something interesting for the YouTube algorithm, that they lose all perspective about what is a good lens in practice.

I'm seeing this more and more, even from reviewers that I trust, like Christopher Frost and Dustin Abbott.

I tend to agree but in all fairness, Chris Frost's review of the RF 35 is enthusiastic about the lens.

You are right, and Frost was over the moon about the 35mm lens IIRC.
