I ended up going with the 4.0, mainly because I could still pack that lens And the 24-105L in the same bag I use for my M43 gear. Plus maybe I'm used to a little more depth of field having shot M43 for so long.

The rf 70-200f4 is a very, very good lens, it's not a superb lens.  If you like to pixel peep (I don't), and you're shooting in dark environments, you'd have to go with the 2.8. Otherwise for most, the F4 will be fine.

I find if my gear is too big, I don't use it. I have some nikon Z gear, and arguably some of those lenses are better than my m43 and some of my canon gear, but they're so big I did't want to bring them anywhere.
