About that "swirly bokeh": After seeing from the same photographer this here
https://www.flickr.com/photos/michaeldoe...n105mmf14/
I start suspecting what other lenses would have done with the swirly background while try to getting that sharpness level smooth bokeh and super sharpness are contradictory. In doubt, I prefer to have a sharper lens as more blur can be added (within limits) in post.
If "necessary", I can get a "swirly" bokeh even from a 56/1.2 APD
