I rented the RF 28-70 f/2, it is very nice but with the drawbacks (4mm is very significant on the wide end) you mentioned. The rendering doesn't match the primes. The rendering of the RF24-70 2.8 to RF 28-70mm is closer than that of the Primes to the RF28-70.

I ended up going with primes and a RF 24-70mm 2.8 which works far better for my studio uses  as well as landscape images than a 28-70mm as well. Outside for portraits my first is the magical 85mm 1.2 DS and then I will use the 50mm 1.2 if needed.
