Don't be silly.
Sony has no 85mm f1.8 lens. If you want to go wider than f2.8, you need to get a 85mm f1.4 lens. That is an REAL drawback, not a fake one. This actually determines the photos made.
Whether someone requires faster than f2.8, that is personal.

Canon has a drawback that it doesn't have 85mm F2.8 that cost $250. So if I need a 85mm portrait lens (and F2.8 on 85mm is pretty shallow DOF), I don't have any choice but to spend 450 instead 250 which is my budget. That's a drawback. A hole.
