i tend to favor it for the low distortion and ease of stitching milky way panos and it is the fastest wide-ish lens in my bag. I do not have any Rokinon 12, 16, etc to use for astro, so the FA31 is my go-to.

I did recently borrow forumite blackcloudbrew's Rokinon 8mm and got this one:
River Of Heaven (Explore #51)
Roki 8 & K-3II, no astrotracer due to extreme wide angle distortion

i also rented the D FA150-450 for a few days and this moon shot convinced me that it is a viable tele option for moon work:
Moon Over The Delta
K-3II & D FA150-450
