If you look at the number of photos posted on the forum, it seems the 28-105mm is (slightly) ahead of the 24-70mm with the K-1. I think there are lots of factors at play, including weight, cost, and reach compared to the 24-70mm. While a more optimal combo may exist (i.e. one of the crop alternatives you suggested), I'm sure many people want to stick to a single format, and thus may not have such alternative on hand.
Also, if you ask me, if you're after maximizing image quality, primes are the way to go. On the other hand, a walkaround zoom will help ensure you have the right tools (i.e. focal length) to capture the moment wherever you are. I'm sure there are many others who, like me, use this lens as a complement to a large suite of primes.
