>>299147 What I'm getting at is that, yes, of course, everyone who isn't anal is going to agree that pretty much every lens is sharp enough. But why not try to get the knowledge and put it into practice to get results closer to what you want, whether that's picking this lens over that one, this aperture over that aperture? Not necessarily the technically best, but the one that gives you the results you want? For instance, a lens might be sharpest at f/5.6 but its bokeh is nicer at f/4, and the difference in depth of field is okay with you either way. You could pick either based on the shot.
Of course sensitivity versus noise, shutter speed, etc. have to be balanced, but it's not a good idea to just leave one part of the equation at some default, whether that's the sharpest aperture or wide open or whatever.
