When it comes to the 21 (and the 15) I'd actually prefer the SMC version due to its lovely starbursts. The HD version has rounded aperture blades that are not as well suited for that. For all the other DA Limiteds I'd go for the HD version if the price was roughly the same. The coating is a bit better, and here the rounded blades might help make a softer bokeh.

Good plan :) I find the 21 to shine when used close up, and maybe not as good for landscapes (which was what I got it for...), but it might just be that my copy is a bit atypical.
The 20-40 I have never used.

Yep, "equivalence" is confusing - and not very useful, really.

I don't blame you ;)
It's the other way around; your DA15 is very close in FoV to a 24mm on FF.

I could live well with this kit. Well, I wouldn't sell any of the primes, but since I'm a primes person you can safely ignore that advice ;) Rationally, this covers every thing from wide to long, wide aperture with the 50 and 90, and macro with the 90. And reasonably fast wide angle with the wide end of the 20-40. Yes, not a bad kit at all.
