I don't think you'll notice much difference in the quality of either lens. Don't underestimate that when you buy expensive filters (and lets face it, why use cheap filters on Leica lenses) there's a benefit when they fit multiple lenses. Over the years I've heard chart readers (aka photo astrologists) belittle the 35/2 R because the MTF graphs are a little weak. But it's a fantastic lens, especially great for b/w, IMO.
