Oh no, all the work! The 50mm shot fully open looked fuzzier, BTW, even in the forum's download.
I once did domething similiar, but with only 3 lenses and 2 apertures. I knew I had 2 *** and 1 **** lens. Still couldn't see it in test shots. In my normal photography, though, I always see the difference, immediately.
It probably is a contrast thing. On black/white test charts the contrast may be that high that it always comes out nicely.

may be more telling, as at some point in the inner part you stop to see the lines. If you see Moire in the middle, you know that the lens outperformed the camera.
Of course, correct focus and RAW processing may be necessary as well. Just my 2 cents, if you want to look into this again.
