"the faster the lens, the larger, heavier and more expensive it is. now,
unless you have a preference for large, heavy, expensive lenses, it would
seem counterproductive to get one if you didn't really need or wouldn't use
the extra speed."

Doesn't the same apply to Ferraris? Ask Robert A.

I live in Marin County, a  wealthy suburb of San Francisco. Daily, I see
guys driving Ferraris and other exotica at ten miles per hour in bumper to
bumper commuter traffic.

If he wants the fastest lens, let it go.
