Especially too wide for use by "artists." ;-)

I was like you at first, drawn by the urge to
experiment with a super-wide. But that play-factor on
a new-toy syndrome faded out in a hurry after using
it. It's way too wide for landscape photography, too
distorted for interior, too much of everything. Apart
from all that, its a quality lens.
