I think this is common practice to produce lenses at 2 classes for different kind of users, the top of the line f2.8 pro one and the cheaper and smaller f4 one for general use, I am glad that Pentax has plan for a 70-200 f4 lens, also waiting for a 1.4 TC FF I want both WR. I don't see the benefit of having a huge f2.8 wide angle zoom given the high IQ in high ISO in modern camera, and the difference in DoF is minimal, f4 is about right in my book like the Sigma 24-105 is perfect to me. I love my 16-50 f2.8 but it is just too short for portrait it is an "embarrassing lens" to use, I would rather sacrifice one stop for added reach, especially I shoot outdoors mostly.
