Thanks.

It's fair to say that in my photography, I'm lucky enough not to need to use such focal lengths, only on rare occasions and that's normally due to "screw ups". At F4.0 she is also the slowest of my "Ladies" and I do take badly to a darker viewfinder, so I have to be a little more gentle when using her to make sure I get it right.
There is a very different discipline that you have to adopt when using them (slower too) i.e. tripod/monopod, mirror up, remote shutter release etc etc, so you're right in what you say it's a "git 'er done" kinda lens.
That having been said she can produce the results every time when asked. As for "pixie dust"... well it's still there but it's resting and needs to be woken for when required.
