A mixture out of: It can't look any better (depending on conditions), unrealistic expectations and user skill deficiencies. The moon is a rock in direct sunlight - ISO 100, f/11 and 1/100 of a second is the rule of thumb to expose that correctly (looney 11 rule)...

f/11 would be a bad idea for someone seeking the max sharpness.

Not with this kind of subject.

It is, because diffraction starts to become a real issue with high mp sensors. F8, or even f5.6 will produce sharper results with high quality lenses.

On budget lenses it's possible that f11 produces sharper images but this isn't the case here.
